Which also doesn't play well if you have shoulders/boots because you change your stat focus to Crit > Haste and therefore are reliant on Lust/BTI procs/Foci procs to ensure more regular full resets from boots.
Also the boots even with partial resets, leads to you clipping the AotB dot which is just lost ticks. It seems like the suggestion to use AoTB with boots comes just from killer cobra not being fully utilised but I don't understand how using AotB which is also partially wasted(due to clipping) is the default choice... you also have to deal with periods of poor DB procs where you can lose alot of KCs during a BW window without killer cobra as a backup....
