It does not refute it at all. Clarity pulse once every six seconds, our
songs have a 3 second casting time (time from when you start the song till
the first effect is felt). So weaving clarity with 1 song = little to no
loss of mana regen, as the clarity song will pulse every 6 to 7 seconds
depending on your manual dexterity, computer's framerate, and missed notes.
You can even weave it with to songs and still get nearly the same effect
like this: Song1 -> Clarity -> Song2 -> Clarity -> Song1 -> Clarity, etc...
