Why penalities to change stances?

That was accounted for in the 300-500 overall dps loss of the swao

To clarify, I was talking about not just the DPS but the time loss which people might not think about if all you state is the dps loss.

You need to be literal with some people here or they will never see all your points.

In 3.0 Warriors were considered my many to be the most mechanically well designed of the tanks, partly because of the smoothness in switching stances. Why SE felt the need to take what people liked, then do the exact opposite is inexplicable to me.
