Er, I wouldn't quite say that not knowing the break-even point between dual wielding and 2h weapons, which could only really be figured out accurately by using a spreadsheet or simulator, means he's disregarding the "empirical fact" that slow weapons are better than faster for a shaman.

Which once again brings us back to the point of this thread: The UI and in-game experience does a terrible job of explaining these mechanics to help someone know whether one thing is better than something else.
