Both Hexblade’s Curse and Genie’s Wrath use the language of a bonus equal to your PB. Tasha’s has many subclasses with features that are limited in uses with respect to your PB, as well as features that specifically add your PB, such as the Ranger’s Primal companion. These are distinct features, where they choose to specify that something adds your PB, or is a bonus equal to your PB, or a number of uses equal to your PB. The aura of sentinel could have read: “while conscious, you and your allies within 10 feet are considered proficient at initiative ability checks” or “…within 10 feet may add your PB to your ability checks when rolling for initiative.” Either of these would be more consistent with other features that grant proficiency, rather than granting a bonus to another roll.

Jack of All Trades gets to add half your PB to ability checks you lack proficiency in. JoAT and Harengon are obviously incompatible,but I am not sure about the paladin aura.
