The problem is your math, even if correct, depends on 2 things.

1. Spending the resources/gold for a steady stream of bombs on every encounter, every fight, every raid.

2. And this is the important one. You did the math for a specific class/spec. Some classes get a nice dps boost from haste. Some classes get an average boost from haste. Some classes get an ABYSMAL boost from haste. One class/spec, elemental shaman (which my engi happens to be) gets 0 practical dps benefit from haste unless it comes in signficiantly large increments. Haste was just a truly awful cheap way out on engi's perk for pve dpsers. It benefits some classes yes, but other classes not so much. None of the other professions seem to punish you for having a specfic class or spec in terms of the perk.
