For starters: who in the right mind would want to put up an AoE HoT when no damage has been inflicted yet. That means it's done before or during a pull, either are bad practice. So why wouldn't the application of mid combat be considered? Which is also an application that would happen far more often than pre-/mid pull applications.

If you'd consider the front-loaded healing as overheal, why isn't the first tick or two considered overheal? Or even more for whispering dawn if adloquium is in effect.
