Static strike and dual wield mechanics

What I have experienced so far with Static strike while dual wielding:

- Dual wielding only uses your main weapon to attack. This means attack speed is based on your main weapon only

- Explosion is based on both weapons damage. After a few Hillock runs, switching between off hand weapons, an off hand weapon with higher damage and the same main weapon consistently kills Hillock faster. This means a slow high damage off hand offers all the benefits but not the drawback of being slow.

Is this mechanic intended? can't imagine it is tbh
