In which case, you're not guaranteed 2.3million damage from the trinket every 2 minutes (going off the ilvl 865 version), as you're not using it unless it's lined up with combustion for max potential.
There's also the danger of misfiring the trinket (procs not going off during combustion due to timing) where you don't reach the max damage potential.
I used the trinket in some Mythic runs... It's incredibly powerful for the opening pull and since most Mythic bosses don't last 2 minutes it's awesome to use. I'm just wondering whether it's worth using on longer boss fights where the potential damage off this trinket outweighs the damage potentially done by other passive proc trinkets like Oakheart and Plaguehive; seeing how it's all about the timing with combustion to get the most out of it.
Wowlogs are currently broken, but I remember reading some top fire mage parses and their Wiggling Sinew damage isn't all that hot.
