You don't need to time it for "use" as a movement tool, but it exists for that option if you know a fight's timeline. The job is already by far the easiest DPS job, it doesn't need to be made any easier.

Animation locks are just bad design...

and end raiding has no use for such a strictly timed dash in a rotation (therefore not usefull for real dash in moments like all other jobs with dashes)

... so as it is, it'ss kind of useless other than "lets start a 2 hit combo"

was really hyped seeing it back then in the EW reveal, but now in endgame raiding, it's more of an obsolete nuisance..
