FSI does reduce the damage you take because not getting interrupted while casting slow saves you hundreds of HP worth of damage from an unslowed mob. Much more than passive regen in the same time.

Funny how I’ve never experienced this. I’ve solo’d plenty of cliff golems, WW dragons and the like. I’ve small manned VP guardian wurms and had plenty of resisted slows. I have not experienced situations where I’m getting bash stunned and breaking my “flow” as it were.
Perhaps the biggest flaw in your reasoning is that you’ve never played a high level shaman that doesn’t have FSI? Perhaps you go “aha I am teh bestest race” every time you see a bash thinking you were gonna be stunned? When realistically you weren’t going to be stunned at all by those bashes? Remember that FSI does not make you immune to being interrupted- it only stops that chance of an actual stun.
Stuns happen, but most bashes do not stun. When they do stun, it’s pretty damn brief
If every landed bash always resulted in a stun (it doesn’t) the case for FSI vs regen might actually be worth having.
The stars and planets have to align for it to have a meaningful impact. However often that is … I’ve never once (not once) experienced it on my xp capped shaman.
