After around 2250 you can extend your rotation so that DK loses only DK under its buff and Twin loses only Twin, giving you a new optimal means of rotation, trading the much larger potency bonus of True Strike and Bootshine for the 27 potency loss on self-reapplication of Dragon and Twin. The previous breakpoint only really allowed for this in sacrificing Dragon on Demolish and at most a single AA for barely over break-even. By the time you reach the 2250+, it doesn't matter whether it's a Demolish string or Snap Punch, and as you can only adjust that alignment with RoF and uptime now -- with the loss of ToD and Fracture -- that's a real help in terms of ease of play, both in versatility/adjustability and potential consistency.
