I remember him explaining that the reason you couldn't see your group mates mana, but you could see their HP was that when viewed from a distance you could physically see that someone is hurt. But there would be no way of knowing how much magical energy someone has just by looking at them.
I imagine his rational for not giving exact numbers for mana is something along those lines. Magic and mana were suppose to be vague things not readily apparent to players.
Are we even sure that spells gave you exact mana numbers at launch?
