OK, now you're actually asking some pertinent questions. Thank you for cutting the bullshit.

To answer your questions in order:
Outside buffs have absolutely zero effect on the pull / split, so that part is moot.
However, you raise a fair point in that I would have less time to kill the king with the frogs dying slower, that is true, but the DPS difference between VoG haste VS just monk epic haste is not nearly as big as you might think.
Yes it would be more difficult, but only time wise, the spore king fight itself would not be any more challenging at all. In fact the actual king kill would be considerably easier with the safety net of having consumables at the ready.
But it would mean that I have a little less time for the pull, snare, and recovery before engage. Is it still possible? - Yes, but it would require more favorable RNG to be on my side.

Thank you for finally making a fair and legitimate argument though. Kudos.
You can correct me if I am wrong, but based on the video I don't see a significant time difference without buffs. You'd have 1500 less HP to regen before the fungi King fight starts, and the lower DPS would only increase the King fight by ~22 seconds according to the math. Each frog shouldn't have been more than +22 seconds each, as they are easier mobs. It takes a bit over 3 minutes to regen that 1500 extra HP from Aego and FoS with 43 HP regen via sitting.
