Giving RDM two rez charges is arbitrary, as there's little reason to do so aside from wanting to keep the rezbot meme alive.
Everyone gets Raise?
Might wanna reword that, as my first reaction was "WAR, DRK and DRG are getting Raise too?".

Sure, in terms of thematics it's nice to have multiple versions of the same spell. That said, little (if anything) would be lost in making the healer rez spell Raise and implementing it as a role action. Adloquium, Essential Dignity, Cure, Assize, Benediction, the lilies, and tarot cards still exist.
