No way... you can't put them on the same level, not even close. A boss going immune or disappearing right in the same second you spend one stack of aetherflow is rather coincidence and bad luck, not saying it cannot happen, it happens, but it's very easy to avoid. Meanwhile, a BLM is screwed over a million of mechanics that turn simple boss fights into a chess game. A boss disappearing or going immune, a not landed cast because an add dies too soon, an add interrupting a cast (either autoattacking you cause tank lost aggro or moving out of sight), a boss disabling you, a lethal aoe forcing you to move, phase transitions...I could go on...
