That aside, the advantages of SoC are-
Extra possibilities for unhealable, over the top burst vs low resil, low armor targets - with some luck on SoC procs you can gib PvE geared rogues in 2 globals, which can be very handy in many situations.
Great synergy with certain classes; if you're running 3s or 5s with a rogue / warrior, the guaranteed crit on stunned targets can be used to great effect with their stuns.
Controlled burst for easy to setup kills on healers - HoJ > crit judge > cs > ds > repentance > crit judge, this is almost guaranteed to do more damage than if you were using SoB, unless you're super lucky with SoB Judge crits and super unlucky with SoC seal procs.
Now don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that SoB is somehow WORSE than SoC, but this whole argument about "which seal is better" is pretty pointless, both have their uses and can be used to great effect in the right situation.
