Come on, at least read the tooltip before you go ranting about something. PW:S is a nice tool to have in the box, but trying to only rely on it is flat out wrong. Blizzard have stated that they don't want classes relying on a single spell to do all of their healing and are trying to vary the playstyle to keep healers engaged.

Original Post:
PWS does not have a cooldown, you can use it every GCD if you wish. We really need to stop saying it has one, because you have to take into account that the spell is basically spammable. Frankly, as a Shadow Priest, I'd love to have Borrowed Time as a talent. On fights with a lot of random burst damage (Kil'jaeden, Twins) I shield a lot. Any time I'm forced to move for one reason or another on KJ, I'm looking to shield someone. This spell is not simply a "cast it once every 15s on the tank" thing. Until you stop thinking that it is, you will find Borrowed Time to be a horrible talent. Once you start thinking about the multitude of uses for PWS, raid healing, burst reducing, mana return, etc. The talent becomes more and more attractive.
Perhaps I'm just too used to playing a spec where PWS is effectively my only heal.
