Feedback on using GoA + Flametounge instead of WF

I was looking to get some thoughts on the totem set i've been using in 5-man dungeons in outland. I'm currently level 64 enhance, btw.
Firstly, i'm aware that WF totem provides the most benefit statistically, but I havent seen any statistics comparing GoA + FT against WF. Also, in the instance groups I set up, the war and I are usually the only melee.
So this is my standard totem spam setup:
Earth: SoE
Water: mana spring
Wind: GoA (WoA if casters are doing most of the damage)
Fire: Flametounge totem
So usually the warrior asks "why no WF?" So, I'm trying to come up with some more concise statements as to why i lay GoA instead of WF.
Keeping in mind that usually the warrior and myself are the only melee, my reasoning is:
1. I'm specced for enhanceing totems, might as well use em
2. WF benefits only the warrior, and in these non-heroic dungeons he shouldnt need WF to hold agro.
3. GoA benefits everybody (mostly just us two, though)
3.1. +4.x% crit helps both our dps by keeping UR up for the war, my dps up with flurry, and keeps shocks from draining my mana with SF.
3.2. +4.x% dodge reduces damage taken by the entire party
4. If i'm not using flametounge totem, I'm probably not using a fire totem at all, and i don't like wasting a totem slot.
So basically it is unreasonable for me to use GoA + Flametounge totem instead of WF?
Note: This is just a general totem set, I obviously wouldn't use FT when fighting fire resistant mobs and what not. There are always exceptions.
