It's only really applicable on single target mobs (and a good handful of fights allow you to multi-dot, and outside of raiding, I just don't have a fun time multidotting on my BRD), and even then it's still a pretty shoddy feeling to have your oGCDs reset mid-cast, let alone trying to make empyreal arrow make properly inbetween your GCDs.

Having oGCD resets is fine and makes for a frantic, situational awareness gameplay (which I enjoyed in 2.0), it just doesn't work or flow very well for a job that uses cast times and really just feels like they didn't put any thought into it. I'm also against your idea of wild shots on BRD, if only on the basis that I don't want them to be even more homogenized with MCH gameplay by having procs for (stronger) instant shots. Numbers should really be the least of the concerns for making these sort of suggestions, since those factors are probably the easiest to change inbetween hotfixes; the changes should be more toward making the two different from each other (like...not giving bard WM when it's functionally the same as GB).
