Riot in general has expressed a dislike of heals because there's nothing a shield doesn't do that a heal would do except sustain a person's lane presence better, creating passive play since they can't be forced out of lane easily. I agree with your point though. Sona's heal isn't great. While yes it hits 2 target, but one of them is always going to be herself, and she can't choose who it hits. Ordainarily it hits the lowest % of health in range, which can be good, except a 1000/2000 carry and a 1800/4000 tank standing next to each other forces you to heal the one who is not the primary concern.
