"The only enemys with enough armor to reduce the DoT are heavy grineer."

That's actually not true. Heavy Grineer actually have low armor compared to medium Grineer: 50 base vs. 200 base. What Heavy Grineer have though, is high HP. Ancients also have rather high armor: 150 base. Anyway, at a decent level, every enemy will have enough armor to reduce it the elemental damage to neglible amounts. Just take a look at the damage pop-ups.

"This blows throw everything else"

That's just because you can spam it and its base damage and poison damage will still do decent DPS by itself. You're still losing a large source of potential DPS though.
