If you aren't crit immune there's always the chance for a 25% resist lining up with the crit causing a ~17k melee hit. If that happens not to line up with a big heal, that's a world of pain.

Not having crit immunity = burst (potentially semi-instagib).
Not having 365 fire res = more damage over time (i.e. more healer stress)

I don't see why anyone wouldn't go for both when it's perfectly possible to get both and still have reasonable other stats. I'm only crit immune with a flask on - I happened to forget 2 weeks ago and didn't get crit because it's that small a chance, however I wouldn't have intentionally done it and just because it happened once doesn't mean I won't still be taking flasks from now on. Taking unecessary risks just isn't good.
