Arcane is actually fine, especially for bursty parts like people using them on Spine. The problem is fire is OP. People can talk about FOTM, but for me, I'm a mage. I'm not an arcane, i'm not a fire, i'm not a frost... I'm a mage. Which means I go with whatever spec is the absolute highest dps for each fight. Granted, if everything is equal, I'm going fire... cuz I like to blow stuff up.

And to be frank, it's not hard to master arcane's rotation. The thing that makes an arcane mage stand out is his activity time, meaning how many arcane blasts can you fit in by barely skirting around the fire on the ground and continue casting without unnecessary movement. Arcane mages will have higher dps leaps than most other specs in terms of just learning a fight, because your dps will be significantly boosted with more activity time.
