.Debuffs are much more dangerous for your other buffs, not STR buffs. Losing haste is a much bigger deal for your DPS. If someone needs a STR buff to run back to a vendor, it is unlikely they are getting dispelled.

You can’t put starting stats into haste. Kinda irrelevant to the discussion.
Losing str to debuff is also about tanking.
Incapacitate removes maybe 50 str from removing a buff, removes 50 for the debuff, lowers agi by 50 too.
If you are overweight by 20 before this spell lands you’ll be fucked and your avoidance is wrecked (not the end of the world if a mage cast DS on you!). Likely barely move too (even worse if a shaman helpfully(!) tosses a torpor).
By stating and gearing strength you aren’t relying on that 50 buff str so incapacitate doesn’t hit anywhere near as bad.
Spending too long in solb/kc/seb is a big part of why i like str. I’ve grown to hate the incapacitate/cripple line on toons relying on str buffs.
