Your flaw is that you are trying to spread out the damage saved from FSI over an average, which doesn't make sense.

23 or 24 HP makes no difference in the pre-slow phase of the fight. When you do get hit for hundreds of HP worth of damage during the 3% of the time when FSI matters, you are in much greater danger.

This is why FSI is better than Iksar/Troll Regeneration. Removing a damage spike of hundreds of damage from at least 3% of your fights is better than gaining 24 HP in all of your fights consistently, which is essentially meaningless.
