But you'd agree it's mostly beneficial when you're solo.

Yes, you'll get bashed from time to time on a root break, resist, etc while grouped.

But lets break that down:
Alot of the time (esp in close quarters), you're sitting. Still stunned if Ogre? Not sure, but either way the impact to your response time is negligible.
Some of the time, you're not facing the mob. Still stunned if Ogre.
Some of the time, if you're not casting, you'll get kicked. Not stunned either way.
Some of the time, if you are casting, melee push interrupts your cast anyway.
Some of the time, bash misses. Not stunned either way.
And finally, the vast majority of the time, 2 seconds of stun doesn't make the difference between life and death.

So yes, it can be helpful in group situations, but would I trade that rare situation for additional hp every. waking. tick. Well, I did.
