you can already fit 2 shadow fangs in BFB at normal skillspeeds (360-390)

to fit them without casting BFB right before shadowfang you'd need less than 2.00 gcd either way

the appeal of skillspeed beyond its value of more gcds in x amount of time is that it lets you more easily

1. clip your dancing edge at 0.1s duration consistently for +26 potency. in raids like t10, t11, t13, not an issue at all because warrior is applying eye most of the time anyway. t12 is the exception for parts of p1/p2 where the warrior will be on a bennu
2. make your rotation more "smooth" so you have less chance to let your dots drop off and potentially miss a tick

the issue with #2 is that actually, at some point in the rotation you can be forced to clip your dots earlier than usual (@2s~ or so instead of 0-1s) or let them drop off for 2 or more ticks (the former is more preferable obviously). it's not a common occurrence, but at some point in the standard rotation it does happen. this is with the standard skillspeed, (380-390) so dropping down to 2.0gcd would just make that clipping slightly worse, sort of negating the benefits of less dot downtime imo. and if you use fuma over raiton it makes it more likely to happen as well. that's how it is for me anyway; for more laggy players, it might not happen though.
