This conclusion is wrong. Going from 1210 to 1936 is a 60% increase (1936/1210 = 1.6) which matches in-combat spirit regen going from 50% o 80%. Hence the value of spirit goes up by 60%.

Certainly a no-cd, raidwide PoH would be a strong spell - but I don't think it's needed, and it will cost in excess of 9K mana compared to PoH's 5.5K.

It's the other way around at the moment.
Having 2 extra sockets from BS = +100 stats assuming epic gems.
Using 3 JC gems over 3 epic gems = (77-50)*3 = +81.
JC gems need to be 83 or 84.

10 yards radius is really not enough for a AoE heal in a 10 man raid. It will be as lackluster as the pre-hotfix 4T13 and will rarely be usable to its full potential - much like the current HR...

Smite builds are probably more viable in 10M than they are in 25, so context is important here. They allow you to cut down to 2 healers but pop up back to 3 during crunch phases. The DPS contribution...

You're extremely undervaluing 2T12. Paladin's base mana is 23422. Therefore casting HS with 2T12 will give an average of 0.4*0.06*23422=562 mana. Since we cast HS every 6s, this gives a value of...
