It might be a bit early to start complaining about Black Temple itemization, but if this is real, they need to hire some itemization folk who can do math. Assuming you have Shadow Word: Pain up at all times, the chance of the proc being up at any given moment is
(2/3)(1-0.9^2) + (1/3)(1-0.9) = 0.16
So, for a Shadow priest on a run-of-the-mill fight, this trinket is about as good as 32 +damage, or roughly the same as a Mark of Defiance. The Renew side of things is a little better. If you keep only one Renew up at a time, the trinket is only worth 32 +healing, but
2 simultaneous Renews maintained ~= 58 +healing
3 simultaneous Renews maintained ~= 80 +healing
4 simultaneous Renews maintained ~= 99 +healing
A little better, but not much.
