Is your Enhancing skill capped? A lot of those kinds of spells heavily depend on your skill. Enhancing is ridiculously difficult to skill without buying skill tomes, so I think a lot of people might not have bothered?
And yes, I do agree that Barspells should allow you to fully resist more often. Not be so utterly OP that you resist 50%+ of the time, but yet have a noticeable effect on full-on resists. Otherwise, you're probably better off casting the relevant Bar-element rather than Bar-status, because chances are, if a mob spams a status affliction, it probably spams the same element too (like something that casts Breakga usually casts Stone, Silencega mobs usually cast Aero, etc).
