Its ffxiv combat really so slow and boring?

Okay, and your solution to SAM with regards to Meikyo Shisui? How do you propose that working under the influence of a buff that gets rid of combos to allow you to apply buffs earlier or to get Sens earlier outside of full combos?

Place the mid-combo button where you would normally place your buffs. You'd still have access to it, but don't need it in your easy to access buttons.
