Shaping is controlled delay or slowing with the goal of queuing or buffering
traffic til it can be sent (within reason)
Policing marks down and/or drops traffic which exceeds the service level
agreement

Shaping isn't the same. You are configuring an average rate of transmission,
as I understand it. Traffic in excess of the configured peak rate gets
throttled down or dropped depending on the DE bit.
Policing results in packet loss if the rate is exceeded.
Would the peanut gallery care to respond?
