Making assumptions about my grouping and soloing isn't an argument. You shared your experience, and I shared mine. You can certainly provide logs from the Sebilis group, and we can see how much the Fungi helped. In your hole example where you have no healers at all, Fungi does indeed help. But I am talking about groups with a healer where you are tanking.
If you mitigate more damage on average in combat with Vindi, and switch to fungi out of combat, you save more HP per hour, even in your example group. Your example group is in Sebilis. Sebilis has casters, which makes Vindi even better.
I am not sure why people have issues with switching to fungi if they need to.

You're weighing Vindi's BP benefit based on AC/Resists, both which have proven unreliable with current p99 code. It's entirely possible that the extra resists from the vindi bp had little to no impact on incoming spell damage for an entire grouping session.
So unless you can provide some logs of Vindi BP out mitigating a Fungi in a typical grouping situation, it's really the Fungi's fixed benefit vs the perceived benefit of the Vindi BP. There might be some edge case grouping scenarios where you might want a Vindi BP to help with the cheal such as a low man Faydedar, but as Troxx indicated 99.9% of the time fungi is the way to go in group situations as it can adapt as needed to all types of different group compositions, which the Vindi BP cannot.
It's really that simple.
