I don't know about the other specs but for destro locks it costs a burning ember to heal big, and thats a sizable dps loss.
The hunter heals are talents, and using exhilaration, readiness, exhilaration is blowing 2 major CDs with long durations, it's hardly something done taking minor damage. Second wind requires a warrior to fall below 35%, good in pvp horrible in pve and that talent is taken in lieu of enraged regen.
Cold snap, again, major talent with a long CD. Evocation requires a glyph and channel time.
Spriest self-healing comes from a 3 min CD VE, otherwise they need to use renew and DP healing. Things
they absolutely need to survive just leveling.
For pve farming, dark succor + DS makes you nearly immortal on a DK.
