Medium armour is a tricky one. It's quite good, but with 16 dex it's actually not better than mage armour - which you can cast at will at 2nd level.
A shield is another matter. For a book or chain warlock it's seriously useful. A blade warlock wants to hold a blade in one hand, which makes life complicated when want to cast a spell if there's a shield in the other hand.
Of course another great thing about medium armour is that you don't really need much dex. Your book/chain warlock could take dex 14, scale armour, a shield and have AC 18. Awesome for a level 1 caster.
