Is this a Bug? Or did they deliberately change the effect for the focus line between IX and X?

Looks like the alleviating burst part got dropped moving IX to X ... and isn't on XI either. Definitely bug report it.
But Sympathetic Hand of Holy Wrath X first appeared in NoS Raids. I assume raiders had a year to bug it if it is indeed a bug and not a nerf. Can any raiding cle/dru/sha verify this? Or is it seriously possible that raiding priests all use 2H and didn't even realize this 1H bug for a year?
Clerics don't really run out of mana ... well, ever anymore. And you would have to look at the actual spell data (I used EQ Resource, but there are others) ... which it's entirely possible no cleric did. The spell data is the spell data ... it's clear that from IX to X and now XI versions that the Alleviating line was dropped.
Here are the full stats for IX. Version X is not just (1) missing the mana return. It's also (2) beneficial instead of detrimental. And (3) also missing the DD component. Also, this proc is on 1H weapons used by CLE / DRU / SHA. I understand Clerics may not realize it. Will give Shamans the benefit of the doubt. But Druids? When a proc changes from detrimental to beneficial, no longer has the DD component, and is no longer giving them mana return, Druids (who don't all use 2H) should have noticed it given that it's been out for a year. That's why I need a verification if this is a bug or a nerf.
