Dude, you're being willfully obtuse. It doesn't matter that it's a bad snare. It matters that it's a SNARE that is castable by Clerics and Shaman, who don't normally have access to the spell at all. Of course you don't have the same sort of tricks available with it that you do with a 6 minute Druid snare, but that doesn't mean it's useless. You just cast it when the mob is about to die to prevent it from running. That's it. It works perfectly fine for that purpose. I have a lot of experience using the item. I boxed a Mage/Cleric duo with it on TAKP and used it extensively while leveling. Six seconds is a perfectly manageable cast time, and you're much better off from an efficiency perspective losing one tick of med time in exchange for the benefit of landing a snare on a fleeing mob.
This is literally not even up for debate. This is just you being in denial.
