There’s no point in using Standard Step twice to pre-apply a buff that will apply immediately on pull anyways. And, as far as I know, NIN will still want to prep Huton pre-pull anyways at around ~10 seconds pre-pull. Healers may also still do stuff such as Adlo/Regens on the MT. So not all pre-pull stuff is gone.
They're talking about getting the buff to apply to the actual potency of Standard Finish (hence the cast, wait for CD, then cast again on pull). But as I said, it maths out to 50 potency extra which outside of turbo niche/hardcore groups doesn't seem worth the wait time.
