Couldn't you just click the GCD item right after you cast Harmony, and not need a timer?

You need to keep track of the 12 second recast timer, because the cast time of Harmony is much shorter than the recast time. Yes, you can click the GCD item immediately after casting Harmony. You just can't cast Harmony again right away. You need to wait 9.5 seconds first before starting to cast Harmony again. Otherwise you will get the "Recast timer not met" red message, because the recast timer is on the server. The server won't let you force end the recast timer. The "Global Cooldown" timer is on the client, which is why you can use a GCD item to force end it. The server isn't being authoritative in that case.
You are thinking of a spell like Cannibalize, where the casting time and recasting time are similar enough to where you can just spam it without worry. Cannibalize has a 1.25 second cast time, and a 2.25 second recast time. It takes about a second to click your GCD item and start recasting, so it just works out by default. That is why you put Cannibalize in your top spell slot, so you can spam it as fast as possible.

Man, you sure used a lot of argumentative words just to agree (in your very next post) that my point was correct:
