I'd say it's almost as bad a habit as the double raises. Wasting it and needing it in the next two minutes is worse than not using it. The WHM pretty much used a single Rapture and no Solaces too, so swap that non-usage with Benediction and it's no longer a nailbiter. Even excluding that, there are other ways to heal an OT WAR with 30+ seconds of downtime.
Those are just bad healers. An OT WAR in normal content shouldn't really need healing. This is 80 content so RI isn't BW but it's enough on it's own for the most part unless you decided to collect vuln stacks.

If you're a decent healer you use Bene on the raise so you can move on, knowing that if the fight gets nightmarish subsequent raises are just going to get a lily and a regen.

Afflatus Misery, if you're asking what the 3 blood lily aoe is.

Depends on the level though. You don't get Misery until 74. This is awkward because Lillies themselves aren't oGCD, even if they are instant. By this point WHM has more options and during trash packs as they want to run through their regens, Divine Benison, Assize, Aslyum down while Holy blasting, Tetra and then finally dip into their Lilies. Unless DPS just takes way too long, you don't really get to use them during pulls.

The real lily build up is afflatus rapture unless you're level 90, cause then you have even more oGCD options assuming your team isn't being problematic.
