Almost no one ever maxes out their monk with gear but with absolute min max raid gear you can't hit max stamina unbuffed whilst also having the best resistance gear pieces. That bit of stamina or preserved buff slot will probably never matter even if you get that level of gear and is only really useful (if at all) for minmax raid pulling.
Even if you don't run a proc weapon like Gharn's or Tstaff it'll be useful to have dex to proc primal faster or even just to proc OT hammer somtimes.
As far as mend and leveling goes I'd say it doesn't matter if you go stamina or not but stamina is better on paper unless you have proc weapons.
