Someone with sims/numbers please allay my fears

Legendary Metagems
Capacitive Primal Diamond – 21.00 base RealPPM on landing melee/ranged abilities and swings. No ICD.
- At 5 stacks, fires a Lightning Strike, which deals [280 + 75% AP] Nature damage. This is considered a ranged attack for Hunters, and a melee attack for everyone else.
- Base proc rate is multiplied by an additional coefficient:
Assassination: 1.089
Combat: 1.232
Subtlety: 0.388
Feral: 2.397
Windwalker: 0.495
Beast Mastery: 0.960
Marksmanship: 0.984
Survival: 0.714
Enhancement: 0.266
Retribution: 1.199
Frost DK (2H): 2.098
Frost DK (DW): 1.479
Unholy: 0.639
Arms: 1.783
Fury (TG): 0.944
Fury (SMF): 0.596
Anyone Else: 1.000
This cannot be right. In my experiances on the ptr, with new raid gear, Frost and Unholy are about even. 2h frost is going to get 3 times as many procs of this new meta gem. Unholy has more AP but it will still do far less damage compared to 2h or even dw Frost. This is recent simcraft data (which may or may not be accurate)
213271 - 2H Windwalker Monk
211982 - 1H Windwalker Monk
205729 - Arcane Mage
203155 - Combat Rogue
199643 - Feral Druid
195076 - Affliction Warlock
191973 - Fire Mage
187785 - Enhancement Shaman
186418 - Subtelty Rogue
183980 - Frost Mage
182509 - Assassination Rogue
180666 - 1H Fury Warrior
178436 - BM Hunter
178428 - Demonology Warlock
177868 - 2H Fury Warrior
175744 - Marksmanship Hunter
174984 - 2H Frost DK
174872 - Destruction Warlock
174320 - Shadow Priest
173469 - Unholy DK
172656 - Retribution Paladin
171236 - Survival Hunter
170362 - Balance Druid
169677 - 1H Frost DK
168561 - Arms Warrior
166526 - Elemental Shaman
It shows 2h frost doing the most.
Am I wrong in saying this makes Frost the clear winner this teir? What the hell is going on?
