I alluded to that in the final section, but I guess I can spell it out right here:

Yes, you will run out of mana far sooner with 8% hit than with 17% hit.

I've long been an advocate of "total damage" numbers meaning more than damage per second numbers, but far too many people focus on and prefer to read DPS numbers. Had I just posted raw damage numbers, people would be asking, "yeah, but what about DPS?"

I can't win either way. Still, the final message of the column is the same, and should matter more than those silly little numbers in the sections before.
