1. Point one is often too situational to be relied on. All hard solo mobs have been done by every race. If this was a huge factor, we'd see differences in success rate among races. We don't, so we know it's not a huge issue.
2. Mana fuels torpor, health fuels mana. Regen in long fights not only makes your extended dps go up more, it also opens you up to kill things faster. Active shaman can benefit more from using canni/torpor rotations because their active regen contributes massively the longer a fight goes on. The regen is useless once you get torpor argument is a false claim.
3. Bash does have a chance to interrupt the spell. Not only am I right, I challenge you to go test it.
FSI is nothing more than a meme who needs narrow situational crutches to put it on par with Regen or Regen + AC

1. I never said FSI is required
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I said it's better than Regen at level 60 with Torpor.
2.Regen over a long fight is irrelevant on kill speed for a Torpor Shaman. If you are doing 15 minute fights, you are saving 180 mana, or 30 seconds, on one Torpor. Most of the time you are not chain fighting mobs with a Torpor Shaman, you are fighting hard mobs that don't spawn often. It won't increase most player's kill speeds by any significant margin, unless you play like 12 hours a day.
3. I said it wrong, I apologize. If you see, I edited my post to correct it. Bash has a chance to interrupt, but stun is a guaranteed interrupt. Removing the guaranteed interrupt gives you a great chance to get the spell through.
The point is simply that FSI is better than Troll/Iksar Regen once you have Torpor. No racial is required to play a Shaman. Again, you can see people know this is the case, because you don't see a lot of Torpor Shamans using Fungi Tunics, even though that has 2x the regen of a Troll/Iksar.
