A percentage based buff will almost always outpace a static value buff by the last tier. This is just even more true for haste due to how blizz wrote the mechanics for haste stacking.
While that is certainly true, it is important to note that the thing that makes temporary stat gains significantly more powerful than passive ones, is their combination with cooldowns or more procs. Having multiple procs running at the same time makes for far stronger dots than they would by themselves spread out over a larger duration.
It is also true that the Berserking buff is stronger than the Blood Fury, even more so in the final tier of the expansion. This, however, completely ignores the substantial dps boost from the pet racial that we orcs have.

For the Alliance! Blizz please give us some neat racials.
Nope. SSwap resets any un-ticked portion of a dot to the full duration - eg 0% haste, 3sec dot tick, that is 1sec from ticking goes back to 3sec till tick - and you will see the remaining time on the dot goes back up to match.
There is a potential use I guess, in that you can bounce your dots indefinitely via soulswap from A to B, then B to A.
You would need an incredibly important burn target coming up to validate the loss of pretty much any MG damage, and most of your dot damage till then though - maybe something like spine of deathwing tendon dps, if you had procs during the adds.

This is why I hope they nerf racials in 5.5 or in 6.0. Hell, they need to just make every racial in the game purely cosmetic, profession based or give a passive 1% crit/hit/haste etc.
I want to be Undead, but Berserking is insane for Affliction and Demo.
