That's like saying we should remove Battle Litany because a DRG might use it on CD before the boss jumps. Or... just hold it until it makes sense to use it. Just like DoTs.
I think everybody would agree that they just need to add an "early detonate" button like with MCH and Automaton Queen, where you can end Queen early if you need to, with the remaining damage loaded into a final attack so you don't lose any potency. Something like that would help deal with bursting down boss adds to prevent a wipe too, since the DoTs are no longer a liability due to time constraints, you can just detonate them for the burst.
