Blowing conflag up too fast so the fireball doesn't get fed? Hit Twin some instead of the conflag or just ignore feeding altogether.

Despite that, I don't really see too much of an issue with higher DPS making things harder. It means you're burning through things faster forcing mechanics to cascade... but you're still killing faster.
Adjusting for higher dps is not the problem though, and I doubt any groups capable of clearing T9 have issues holding dps. The problem is that it makes fights less fun and negates the point of improving your gear in the first place.
