True, just trying to break down the mechanic and see how "best" to use it, if used at all.

If you have a mage and a cleric, and you want to minimize spell slot usage, combining cantrips together is not a bad choice. Otherwise blow all your spells and then just rest afterwards.

Also, CC on a target (or multiple targets) isn't always a waste, and if you can CC out a target and then finish with some dmg after their turn, then win win.
