The only problem with cav defense from what i've found is that they can be cleared out easier than swords,even with warriors. Since they can engage the attacking force faster.
With swords, as you say not having abistis, can last longer from prolonged offense, since they could only send archers to even engage them, since the battle starts at your AT. Rainbow troops would have be deployed to help with that.. but it'll will still be costly. But , there is really no other choices.
But it is true that calv is more versatile. I just found that they've been easy to kill on defense, with even warrior spams..
