Good article, and until Blizzard says something otherwise, I completely agree with your conclusions. This is a smart move on Blizzard's part simultaneously balancing PvP without hurting PvE. Something very rare indeed.

@1 That is probably the best reasoning for why Blizz is deciding to implement these changes. Resilience, even though it only affects crit damage, in the big picture it reduces total damage as a whole.

As far as shadow resist arena gear goes, then this would only affect Warlock and Shadow Priest DoTs and none of the others, which wouldn't be fair. Letting resilience affect DoTs I feel is a good answer to this problem, addressing ALL of the DoTs rather than a few specific ones.
