I'm simply stating that if you have all your buffs and you had a choice to do either SE or BB combo for 20 beast gauge to cap your meter why wouldn't you choose BB combo (670 potency) over SE combo (640 potency)? This entering min-max territory and only applies to specific people in specific content.
Because, as was previously pointed out, you are losing Fell Cleaves down the line when you sub butcher's for path. And you shouldn't be capping on gauge, that's what Onslaught is for. It's not really a gain to use Onslaught on cooldown so you save it for when you are at 80-90 gauge, use it to drop 20 gauge and finish path combo.
