Matt,

It's been awhile since I thoroughly looked at the Arms warrior, but I was under the impression that Arms was to provide significant DPS, but also a few raid buffs that Fury couldn't provide.

Keeping this in mind, you compared YOUR Arms output to YOUR Fury output, but did you look at the greater picture? Were other DPS'ers pulling higher than typical dps b/c of the Arms boons? During phases in fights that required more movement, were your bleed abilities able to provide more DPS during that phase than Fury? I think there could be a significant advantage to Arms that isn't directly shown in the overall numbers. Perhaps you do LESS dps, but you cause the raid as a whole to do more? Maybe Arms warriors as a collective could investigate some of this further and then be able to show perspective guilds/raids/groups the true boons of the Arms spec. Just my thoughts.
