I don't want to join this argument by any means. However an important fact has been left out of the equation and must be added: Bash does not always land, and even when it does, it does not always have the stun component.
Now in my opinion this fact adds a bit to both sides. On one side, timing to avoid it is not always necessary at all because sometimes the npc will attempt to bash and it won't work, therefore you have wasted time not casting a spell where one could have been cast.. While on the other side, Ogre's frontal immunity does not come into play everytime an npc 'bashes' because of the same reason, the bash may not have landed/stunned at all on even a barb shammy. I haven ever timed bashes and I am a barb shammy. Consequently there are times when i wish I was ogre =P. Maybe if i had a stopwatch as part of my ui or something.
