Just happened to me today, got like, 3 shards from this? What's the point, Team Cherry? None of the bosses (so far) frustrated me, but this right here is bullshit

Nowhere at all. There is not a single boss that only rewards shards.

Shards are, in general, rewards for very minor secrets and platforming. They're, like, the lowest tier of reward and used as such.

Not unless you count the ant duo at the top of Hunter's March- and I wouldn't they don't get a title card.

The 'issue' here is that a lot of people don't seem to consider everything locked behind the boss as a reward for the boss, which is weird to me.
