I also main BLM now and can say for sure that leaving out Fire IV has been better than trying to DPS with it in some situations.

BRD may be different though, if its DPS is just so god awful without WM that it's just worth squeaking out casts with it.
There 100% are distinct times to take off your GB as a MCH. Not sure about about BRD, but MCH can save some lost damage in a moving part if Rapid Fire, Slug and Clean are on CD or not procced, or if literally everything is on CD the auto attacks + 1-2-3 outweighs GB 1-2-3.
