You misunderstood point 4, DRK's extremely high pps is best used ASAP, this includes under potion buff, as most of DRK's damage is done in the first 2-3 GCDs.

A lot of BRDs/MCHs will apply Foe Requiem/Hypercharge ASAP as well, so this will benefit the DRK that uses their skills ASAP. A lot of bosses also only give you windows to reapply skills like Scourge or Carve and Spit very sparingly, so being able to get off another usage before they phase/jump away/mechanics happen is a big deal.
