Only because the healing spell was in the holy spellbook and not disc? What about the following: power word fortitude, power word shield (for non-tanks), inner fire, dispel magic, fear ward (onyxia says hi), shackle undead, mana burn (pvp), divine spirit, and power infusion. Every. Single. Disc spell. Was used by good holy priests.
