Lets say you are the off tank on a raid. It is your job, in some fights, to stay second in agro. Lakshmi for instance will throw a lot of mechanics at whomever is 2nd top enmity. If you die, or just start falling behind, it's very easy to provoke the boss, then shirk 25% of that enmity back to the MT. Boss will rarely even land a blow on you, and you are back to #2 hate spot without wasting your DPS time using a BB combo.

As of now I've run into problems in fights like Lakshmi specifically with staying in the #2 spot on the enmity list. Throwing out cheesey provokes is risky, so I just wish BB had more conventional use
If BB gave 20 gauge, why would we ever use Path? This is part of the issue with having 3 combos, all need a reason to be used.

I use BB combo when I'm dealing with VERY good DPS that actually build agro, mostly just in boss fights in dungeons, though.
