Pertinent discussion from another thread with regards to ac vs hp on live:

Differences here:
-you won’t be maxing all your stats or resists with any old random piece of gear (raid or high end group).
-tier for tier each piece of gear had pretty predictable and consistent hp/mana per item.
-here complete heal is complete. Even if the 10k cheal limit on live were implemented here, no tank could possibly reach that threshold. Max hp from buffs is 1100+405+200 + whatever extra you might get from stam buff if under the cap.

Even with BiS gear nobody is cracking the 10k mark.

As a note, Cheal the spell is 10k limited, though the bp clicky version apparently is not. This can matter when healing pets; captain bvellos has 23k+ HP, for example, so when using him to tank vindi 10k cheals are common since you can just ch at 80% life.
