[PVP] Is Frostbolt really better than Frostfire bolt?

If talented with 5/5 Imp. Frostbolt and 2/2 Emp. Frostbolt, then I can see why it's a bit better.
But what if I don't wanna spend 7 points on marginally buffing a single spell (I'd rather have 2/2 Cold as Ice and 3/3 Imp. CoC etc.)
I mean, Frostfire bolt (without talents) has longer range, the same spellpower bonus, and a DoT.
The extra 0.5 casting time doesn't really matter IMO. You either have time to cast or you don't, it's like the first thing you have learn when you PVP as mage:
"Can he interrupt my cast?
"Does he have any remaining cooldowns that can screw this up?"
"Will I finish the spell before he reaches me?"
I don't think I've ever been in a situation where i thought to myself "If I only had 0.5 more seconds!"

There is one HUGE problem with FFB in PvP. If you get counterspelled/kicked, you get locked out of both the Fire AND Frost tree. That means until your school(s) lockout comes back, you can... blink?

Well that sux ass. It's borderline unfair imo.

How often do you chain-cast bolt/ball/blast spells in PVP anyways hardman? It's very rare.
