I find those healers to be few and far between. Down ranking promotes brainless activity, even if you use it as a cheap Flash Heal with a longer cast time. This creates another problem in that they have to balance mana regen and gear around that unintended use of the spells. Any way you look at it, the way WoW is designed down ranking heals isn't good for the game.
