And if you mistime your refresh, keep in mind that you are generating aggro that Onyxia sees. So yeah, she can land and head straight for that paladin that was trying to be good and rebuff people and then breath and kill half the raid because that paladin is standing on the side where they should be. If you buff too early in phase two then the 5 minute buff can very like just wear off again and not matter. If you buff at a bad time in phase 3, you can pull aggro with a buff and wipe half the raid.
Yes it can be done but it's not that simple. And of course if the raid is well organized and trying to maximize buffs you only have one or 2 paladins responsible for salvation. If one of them dies it's not the easiest thing to take over the duties and yes people get out of range and you have other jobs to do, especially if you only have 2 priests and 2 or 3 druids as your healers and remember with the global cooldown on casting if you are buffing 40 people or even 20 the first one you buffed has half to 1/4 of the 5 minutes gone by the time you buff the last person.

It's all just zeroes and ones and duct tape in the end.
