See I think that's the trap they're worried about too.

When you have gear that says something like: Dancing Edge +2

First off... wtf does that mean? Second, now you're talking about making specific skills strictly better than they were before you put the piece of gear on.

What if instead we had: Shadow Fang ticks occasionally reset the cooldown of Mug

It'd be hard to argue that this is op in any way and is a very minor dps increase. But it gives the NIN something to watch for, something to shake up the playstyle, and it IS a performance increase. It's also really obvious exactly what the effect is, which takes some of the guesswork out of how highly to value the piece of gear.
