Sounds like a misconception to me. I mean yeah mathematically if you have x = probability of crit and y = probability of dh, to maximize x*y = probability of crit and dh assuming we know the maximum sum x + y, is to make x and y roughly equal. But the thing here is that x and y are probabilities, i.e. crit/dh proc chances, not the stat numbers. We only know the maximum sum of stats (something like, at i340 with melds, crit + dh stats max at 4000 for a certain job, or something like that). Keeping x and y roughly equal is impossible due to the nature of dh's faster scaling compared to crit. You can easily get 40%+ dh rate, while your crit rate is probably in the range of 15-20%.
