If charm breaks when someone else is starting to get a CH...that can mess things up cause now you're dead and your pet is an add.
As a priest I have noticed this a consistent issue when grouping with chanters who have soloed a lot. Charm a lower level pet. Your greatest asset is buffs and slows and crowd control.

Ya definitely. I guess a rule of thumb I’ve heard reg charming in groups is it becomes more useful the less overall kill speed and dps your group has. A group that has lots of dps and is already chain killing quickly really doesn’t need the extra dps (and risk) from a charmed pet. In fact if the chanter had the pet long enough for that mob to have been able to be killed and repopped, then the group actually lost out on its exp. Groups without good dps or with slow kill speeds would benefit more from a pet which will do roughly 4x a single char’s dps
This is along with everything you said about choosing the right target. I imagine good chanters also will plant their pet across a room with pet guard here between pulls to buy some breathing room on breaks if possible
