For reference, I played a 60 epic monk on live and pulled some of the major raid dungeons..Didn't play an SK beyond 30 or so, so I'm more commenting from a monk's perspective.

a) Monks can feign on the run

This is the biggest advantage. Jump-feigning is particularly awesome.

b) Monk feign has little or no re-use timer

No, there is a re-use timer on the ability. I think it's about 10-15 seconds.

d) Shadow Knights don't have Sneak, which means they can't do quite a few of the pulling-related tricks a Monk can do. Much of what some players think of as a Monk's splitting ability actually comes from Sneak moreso than from Feign as the two abilities synergize together quite well.

Sneak is quite handy. Feign behind a mom's spawn point, let it reset (forget aggro on reset), sneak, stand and slowly walk away, bandage, whatever.

e) Shadow Knights have access to an item which lets them cast invisibility instantly, including straight from feign. This plus some of their other spells gives them access to some options a Monk lacks, making the SK the arguably better puller in a limited number of situations.

Yup, Circlet of Shadows is pretty darn awesome.
