RDM have a priority-based casting system, yes. It's not 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3 though, so technically speaking we don't use the term "rotation" ...

As for "where the heck are those darn RDM learning this stuff?" -- it's from the single-player duties, FATEs, and in-general world encounters on the way to level 60-70 and SB content. You'd be surprised how many times there is a need for a heal when there isn't a healer around. Do that for, oh, 16 levels, and it becomes ingrained.

Unless the RDM is trying to be a healer, it isn't really the same thing as an Ice Mage. And Physick Arcanists (really?) become Scholars at level 30, when they can queue as healers.
