You don't need a huge mana pool for most situations. However, it helps a lot when you're level 60 and raiding Velious-level content. Let's be honest, in ToV you're not going to be playing a significant role in raids except for patch healing, and that's where your mana pool comes in. When your group is eating tons of AoEs, every extra point of mana is critical because it means more HoTs you can cast. Paladins HoTs are actually pretty efficient and we are criminally underrated in our healing capability. I was able to easily keep my group topped off by myself on trash mobs and helped a ton on nameds too.
