Whilst I understand the advantage of having 2589 haste I fail to understand why it's mentioned so often. I've not seen a sim where the value of haste changes so much it actually effects gearing in any significant way (haste reaching 0.5int changes gemming, and the value of haste vs mastery can change the glove enchant, what else is there?). It seems very simple to determine if 50haste vs 65mastery for yourself, and if 20haste>10int.
I've also seen talk about haste > crit/mastery above 2589 with DI but not without, sup with that? How does that really make any difference other than increasing your haste on gear improves the haste benefit from DI?
On the chart so kindly linked so many times it mentions the haste value required for DP to gain it's extra tick is the same with and without DI, surely that's not the case? (Just curious, it doesn't make any difference)
