I have to disagree with you here. As long as it shows 12, you are still within the 8 seconds that your spell is on cooldown, when it's being counted down. It's not until your cooldown hits 11 and 29/30th's seconds that you can then recast the spell. So in effect, you would only theoretically lose 1/30th of a second.
A visual with smaller fractions...
20.0 counter 0.0 sec cooldown
19.5 counter 0.5 sec cooldown
19.0 counter 1.0 sec cooldown
18.5 counter 1.5 sec cooldown
18.0 counter 2.0 sec cooldown
17.5 counter 2.5 sec cooldown
17.0 counter 3.0 sec cooldown
16.5 counter 3.5 sec cooldown
16.0 counter 4.0 sec cooldown
15.5 counter 4.5 sec cooldown
15.0 counter 5.0 sec cooldown
14.5 counter 5.5 sec cooldown
14.0 counter 6.0 sec cooldown
13.5 counter 6.5 sec cooldown
13.0 counter 7.0 sec cooldown
12.5 counter 7.5 sec cooldown
12.0 counter 8.0 sec cooldown
the moment it hits 12.0 and goes that 1/30th of a sec less, ie 11 and 29/30th then your cooldown is over with and the color changes.
That's my understanding at least due to the fact that the numbers are counting down, not up.
