If you're not max level though, there's a decent amount of classes that suffer for it, because you don't get all your abilities until higher levels, so I can see the sentiment. I think the issue is really just with how low-level skills are handed out though, vs how the game plays at max level with a 2.5s GCD.
2.5 GCD is the base GCD speed, by the time you hit max level it is lower due to skill/spell speed stat. Honestly, any lower GCD and the animations on my DRG will just look...silly to the point of why even bother having animations.
