I think you're exaggerating the issue with Doomguard a fair bit.

Do you even play as a Demo lock?

Doomguard does about 1 million damage for me as Demo (16-17k dps) in the 65 seconds it is out. Adding another 45 seconds to the Doomguard's duration means another 700k damage which is about 1900dps increase for a 6 minute fight.

For affliction and Demo, the Doomguard does significantly less damage (about 1/3 the damage) for a shorter duration of time.

The two piece bonus for affliction/destro will only be worth about 211 dps.

Now people are claiming that perhaps Blizz meant to give Affliction/Demo an extra 45 and Demo an extra 15 seconds. This makes absolutely no sense, because it penalizes Demo for putting 2 points into Ancient Grimoire and I won't comment beyond that.
