If anything 100hp is a bigger deal for those without plans to get the awesome raiding gear as they wont have those high hp items available to them.
You make a fair argument, and I'm sure it works for you. I said in the guide it's not a big deal and there are lots of arguments on all side. I don't personally put any points in sta at creation.

If you think about the Enchanter Bard skills (lull, mez, cha) you see a similar debate on the Enchanter forums about maxing int or cha. Some enchanters say you don't need Cha even when charm soloing...which blows my mind. I think one of the most important things for a Bard is avoiding lull crit resists, and I think the second most important thing is getting quick procs with weapons. So I put most points into Cha, and I get Dex to 100.

If you are raiding you basically don't need anything besides resists and hp. If you are soloing or pulling for a group, you'll have HP/AC buffs, but a lull crit will destroy you
