I wasn't having a go at theorycrafters, I use the spreadsheet myself but it isn't the be all and end all for determining optimum DPS. I actually think crit works better when you get it in large chunks from gear but if you are a little short of crit and you can afford to do it without gimping hit, then 4 crit/damage gems will give you close to 1% extra crit which in the case of the OP would get him around the magic 20% mark. It's also very easy to say "change a few bits of gear" but you can't affect what drops and gems allow you some freedom to modify your stats without relying on luck and maybe DKP (or whatever loot allocation system you use).
I agree with your thoughts on haste, I don't think it's the way to go for the OP based on his armory and as I said, on the spreadsheet crit/damage gems come out roughly even with pure damage gems.
