Spell Echo not giving Brands cast speed

With level 6 Faster Casting (25% increased cs), level 11 Storm Brand activates every 0.32 seconds.
With level 1 Spell Echo (51% MORE cs), level 11 Storm Brand activates every 0.38 seconds.

Is this a bug or am I missing something here?

Increased\Reduced cast speed applies to Brand(s) as written at skill description.

More\Less are different modifiers by the game mechanics.

Not a bug.

actually MORE is a INCREASE and LESS is a REDUCTION, so it is a bug. the entire wording is messed up and should actually be rewritten so that it makes sense in the English language. this applies to 99% of text in POE, they should of never went down this path. they should go and look for words that don't mean the same thing.

if they didn't want it to work with Spell Echo or MORE/LESS cast speed then they should PUT that in there. could use the ALT button to bring up more TEXT so that people that actually play the game know EXACTLY what they can and cannot do.

they could do something as simple as grouping multipliers(which is what they do now anyway). GROUP 1 would be increases and reductions as they are now, GROUP 2 could be MORE/LESS. MUCH MUCH easier to understand then using two words that mean the exact same thing but for some reason always get excluded in text.....yes that means naming increases/more to Group 1/Group 2 (multiplier). so simple, so effective, no headache, less people confused.

profit?!?!

I don't care (and didn't waste time to read all of that text).

GGG made things like that.
It's their game. Their mechanics. Their wording.
More != Increased.

You can send them a bunch of e-mails if you don't like "how the stuff works".
Don't hope for the change though.

P.S. and by the way, Mr. "English language",
