okay, soo it stillll did some effective healing.. I think it would be stupidly easy to argue the point that they might as well put it up to ensure the tank didn't die. If you look, one of their holy paly's holy light is 95% overheal, and their JoL is 95% overheal as well... I would imagine they could do considerably more healing without it.. but i mean, if it's not killing people (aka the tanks have superior gear with lots of stam.. which goes back to the gear issue) then what is the harm? You've said yourself that paladins overheal ALOT.. better to be safe than sorry... plus I would imagine they weren't even close to oom....
Have you talked to them? Myself, I make it a point to talk to good players on other realms and talk to them about why they do what they do. I found a lot of bullshit on the warlock forums or just information that wasn't updated... I went to locks doing 5k+ dps and asked them what they were doing, a solid rotation, other questions blah blah blah.. from what I've gained from them and what they've told me, it's basically a gear issue at this point.
Oh, and I was being serious about JoL.. nobody died, and I highly doubt the healers were close to oom, unless you have evidence otherwise judging from wws or asking them personally.
Edit: if healers aren't able to keep tanks above the hp of melee dps, doesn't that say something about the healers and or tanks? lol. Again, their guild was able to do use JoL just fine.. either their tanks had better gear or their healers were better at keeping tanks up.. w/e.
