It serves the purpose of padding damage meters. It doesn't speed up the kill but neither does it slow it down, really. Not much of a flaw in strategy in the end.
The point here is people make Golemagg raidstats entries into an example of single target boss fight dps data. This is NOT a single target fight. You CAN cheat the meters by dpsing the dogs, and people do it all the fuckin time.
If you want an accurate representation of single target dps capabilities of any class, use Ebonroc fights. They're just about the only encounter in current content where 1) you can't cheat and 2) there are no external RNG factors that influence the fight and make comparisons different entries pointless (say, stuff like getting knocked around on Raggy; you can't compare Raggy fights, it's not objective). You only need to make sure you're taking fights where tanks aren't shit.
On a side note, insulting Theoloras and Killerduki is a dirty habit you'll eventually get into if you ever try having a meaningful discussion with either (especially if you happen to disagree). They have this strange quirk where they're under the impression that following basic rules of argumentation and the need to adhere to logic doesn't quite apply to them.
