The caster one yields a lot of secondary stats but due to stat weights some amount of the stats would be better suited in other places, and will likely lose out to more specialized trinkets that favor the class's attuned or desired stats. EG an arcane mage may not care much for versatility and crit, so the stats allocated there is somewhat of a waste and would provide more value to the class if it was more haste or mastery.
Better caster trinkets will come and go, while the melee one will still have some value where leech/speed is desired.
