There'd still be a choice between which to use, since BoK is the clear winner in DPS on single target and BoF wins on AoE. You'd just switch which one you use depending on the situation.
The alternative way to go is to make BoF do A LOT of extra damage, but still doesn't boost Shuffle... Then you're choosing between DPS or mitigation. Which could be interesting. I dunno. Could be even more OP on certain fights, or it still won't get used because picking DPS is 'doing it wrong'.
It just feels like there could be a more elegant solution than giving Shuffle to BoF... It would work, sure. I also like the idea of BoF being a button you want to press because it's super fun, not just something you press to keep a buff up. Hmm.
