I'm pretty certain a similarly sized lion/tiger would be considered more threatening.

That could work as long as the handler wore armour, had the beast on a
(long / strong) lead and the laws on keeping dangerous animals was
changed to allow the Police animals to actually kill crims (as I'm not
sure the recall command would work as well on a lion as it would on a
dog). ;-)

Sorry, was there a point to that?

Clearly it is possible to train lions.

And you would be the perfect person to test just how reliable that

You might be right, most animals like me. I've been warned on several occasions that someone's dog will bite me, then they wonder why it's letting me pet it. I also bought a scarlet macaw which was violent and would bite her owner's ear. He was shocked to see it sat on my shoulder cuddling me.
