    I've been testing on dummies for awhile, and it may just be the parser not counting dot's correctly, but I do more dps just doing DK > TS > SP from the flank. If I interchange SP and refresh demolish when its down, I parse at 255 dps. If I only do DK > TS > SP from the flank only, with steel peak, and howling fist used during gcd cooldown, the maximum I've gotten with relic is 268 dps. Until there is a reliable parser to prove otherwise, I'm finding demolish and other dots for MNK worthless.

    There's a more basic reason though.

    Most melees are on stun duty, and I wouldn't even dare do anything but dk-twin-snap (demolish maybe when safe), and feint (every so often to keep it from resisting) to make sure that stun isn't late.

    It's just much easier to do you job when you only need to weave in and out of flanks, and have your fastest animations possible.
