Viability of a Spell Speed WHM set up?

[MiniTofu]

Spell Speed secondary for waste of mana is irrelevant statement, you will be wasting mana regardless if you spam non-stop over-healing. Spell speed is weak and yet you can always pre-cast if you know the coming boss mechanics.

Spell Speed beneficial for learning and emergency moment to help recovery in case someone made a "OOPS" moment (not you). Healers would be responsible as a team to recover someone mistakes. We can't be perfect like bots.

Spell Speed can speed up long cast Raise, Esuna, Stoneskin phase and etc.

Secondary stats are "label" as playstyle preferences, if you are good with cast timing. Then Spell Speed is useless to you personally and you can't speak for other. Everyone has different real life, latency and reaction timing when it comes to awareness of their surrounding and how focus they can be in a game.
