^ First, I'm pretty sure that lvl 100+ heavy goes down in 5-10 finishers. And that is possible to execute within the stun time if you're using Primed Fury.

Second, melees have one advantage over most guns when it comes to status: they can hit multiple enemies. With Primed Reach, even daggers start hitting much more people than a gun with punch through.

Third, if the weapon is somehow still too slow after you add Primed Fury, which makes most, hell, every slow melee bearable and melees with average speed somewhat fast, you can add Volt or Valkyr to make Caustacyst a spinning whirlwind of doom, something you certainly can't do with guns.

And, lastly, by the time you hit these levels in the actual game, you already have 4x bonus' damage from the combo, so that's something to consider, as well.
