Quote:The more crit % comes from Willpower, the more room you have to swap around power for crit mods.

This part, by the way, is false. The value of crit rating is based almost entirely on how much crit rating you already have, not on what your current crit chance is. This is an exceedingly common misconception, most likely instigated by the very common recommendations on the official forums to keep your crit chance near X%. This is, however, inaccurate. You want to keep your Crit Rating to Power ratio in the right spot (determined by your gear level and spec). What your final crit chance ends up being is largely superfluous (except for healers wishing to guarantee Recklessness crits).

Basically, adding more Willpower, thought it does increase your crit chance, doesn't really have much of an effect on how much crit rating you want.

On a side note, the 10% rule only really applies for Hybrid. Both Madness and Lightning are showing closer to a 15% advantage toward Willpower.
