Would patch 5.1 and having 4-set enough for MM to be viable? Viable as in heroic raiding where dps actually matters

I just ran my char through FD as i've been curious as to see the effect, now i'm not in BIS gear, but the sim shows a 3k dps loss from swapping from BM to MM, without the change.
Considering the change of ISS duration makes the rotation easier, ( thus able to achieve what this sim is saying) i see no reason why MM isn't viable. Its not optimal however.
BM with the 4-set bonus takes a bigger dump on the other two specs than before. MM will still be a shitball spec even after 5.1 with the 4-set bonus. The problem with Surv and (especially) MM is that the specs lack damage. Surv is only good in massive AOE gimmick fights but lacks good single target damage. MM just lacks in everything (AOE and single target). The spec will be bad until Blizz reworks it and/or gives it some solid damage buffs. We'll see though, maybe Blizz will surprise us lol.
