It's not unpredictable if you're able to use all your spells. You can fear juggle an enemy by applying fear, then using curse of recklessness if they get too close to pulling another pack, then back to agony/elements when they come back.
that's a lot of GCDs for CC though. Fear is great when needed in the heat of the battle but it's rarely needed when an encounter goes correctly. You don't really plan a fear ahead of time if you can avoid it by using other CC.
As a warlock main you're totally right and if you're soloing or trying to do dungeon content with 3 ppl instead of 5 or really challenging yourself using fear and controlling it is great and helpful. That's just a different style of playing the game tho, no content needs you to push like that to complete raids.
Fear is pretty terrible Cc. You can use it on dmn 2 extra ogre spawns if you pull boss far back. Or on omok extra boss in lbrs. That's all I can think of
