It's not individual burst hits explicitly. It's damage taken within a single GCD (which, admittedly, is how most big hits work), since that's the healing rate capability of a healer. A majority of the burst damage that tanks take end up being taken within a single GCD or a small number of GCDs where a healer is incapable of throwing out heals thanks to moving or other preventative methods.

When you start increasing the number of GCDs, you're not talking about eHP but instead healing required, which, as previously mentioned, is a different construct.
