They get their MP back...

Meanwhile, NF costs nothing...

PLD shares a cooldown with thier co-tank giving them 50% of thier mitigation +10% which helps both when split tankbusters exist.
PLD doesn't get anything from using Intervention.

Popping another CD doesn't count as getting something from the skill.

GNBs Heart of Stone is Free and doesn't override another cooldown.
Yeah, but it only affects ONE target. You can use it on yourself OR on an ally.

NF gives healing to the Warrior that uses it AND gives healing and DR to the ally it's used on.

What's your point? Oh yeah you could possibly get a big heal that is reduced by 50% on a tankbuster... if you plan to do so and hold off on skills to set it up. Or you could just... have an impactful OT skill without any need for much set up for basically the same benifit.
Even with 0 set up, you get basically a better HoS from your 123 combo plus the 10% DR since that'll push out a lot more healing than the garbage that is the shared Brutal Shell shield which will likely outperform the measly 5% DR difference.

If you actually play with half a brain, you'll float an Infuriate charge and be able to use that to get a massive burst heal out on demand.

Also, again, NO OTHER TANK IN THE GAME gets a defensive boost from using their ally skill on an ally.

Meanwhile, most Warriors ignore their "Self" skill, because the defensive bonus they recieve from their "Ally" skill is far superior. (Especially when you consider diminishing returns on stacked damage reduction CD's making healing and shielding even stronger during times when you'd also be popping Rampart/your 30% CD)
