Every Man For Himself [Useful or Not?]

Hello, :)
I've recently been trying to really get back into WoW and the Human passive seems really useless with how the PvP talents work. Using it puts Gladiator's Medallion on full 2-Min CD, and picking any other Talent in this spot makes it unusable for me. On top of only removing Stun effects now, which I don't think is a big problem on it's own.
Is there something I am missing, or is it genuinely useless now?

Wowpedia states:
Added in Patch 3.0.2, Every Man for Himself was designed to take the place as the only active-use racial for Humans (as was redesigned into a passive racial). Its original effect allowed the player to remove all movement imparing effects and all effects that cause a loss of control - an effect identical to PvP insignia trinkets. The racial had a 2 minute cooldown and shared this cooldown with similar effects (notably the insignia trinkets). In PvP combat, this allowed Human players to forego the insignia, often seen as mandatory for PvP, and instead replace it with a stronger trinket. After much controversy, a brief attempt to balance the racial was made at the start of the Cataclysm expansion by increasing the cooldown to 3 minutes. This change was reverted soon after, with a statement from Ghostcrawler saying they believed they had overnerfed the racial.
Patch 7.0.3 reworked Every Man for Himself by changing it to only remove stun effects, rather than all crowd control effects, and made the effect from insignia trinkets a baseline ability to all classes, available for use in PvP combat.
However, other than that I can't help you, since I only have Starter Edition and so can't participate in PVP.
