Buddy. Shockwave. You HAVE to get Asenath's.

If the explosion is all you care about then why not just use an Abyssal Cry gem? It synergizes with all the extra chaos nodes we take, and does even more damage.

Abyssal Cry - Performs a warcry, Hindering nearby enemies and causing them to explode when killed. Explosion deals Chaos Damage equal to 8% of the Monster's maximum Life

I would understand if you needed the temporal chains + the blind, but if you are using a 21/20 temporal chains gem already, the utility on these gloves fall way behind.

We arent using 21/20 temp chains anymore as rank 10 from asenaths provides the same "Other effects on Cursed enemies expire 40% slower" and only lose 5% and 3% monstor slow.

The person in question literally is using the 21/20 temp chains in their build.

Just because some people use a guide for inspiration doesn't mean everyone is following it to a tee. Every single person reading these guides will be made a better player understanding what options they have.

Case in point: I'm using both Focus + Abyssal Cry and it's working out just fine. The person who they were referring to (Shockwave) also has some build differences.

That's the whole beauty of this build, there are a lot of options. I still maintain that if you are ONLY looking for the explosion effect, you might as well use Abyssal Cry and maximize the value with a different glove entirely. If you are using it for the Level 10 Temp Chains, then it gets a lot more value.
