To name a few strengths; DW gets the most free cleave, 2H frost is the easiest to play, and unholy gets the highest burst. All specs are VIABLE on every fight, but DW is probably OPTIMAL on most of them, given perfect skill level and ideal gear. Unholy and 2H frost are basically equal for ST, with a slight variation based on your itemization, and between the 2 a slight preference or familiarity for one over the other will tip the balance.
Play what you want to play. If that's unholy, I'd say the regemming is worth it.
