amumu does not need hp scaling, he already has good base stats and good sustained damage as an incentive to build tanky.

Hp scaling its a "new" way to give tanks some sustained damage and encourage building tanky, but its not really new, since pretty much has encouragement to build tanky to do more damage and do his job better, some directly like galio and rammus, others indirectly like amumu and singed (the more tanky they are, the more dps they can put out through despair or poison).

And tanks who dont have such sustained damage have great cc and base damage (alistar, cho'gath), or good heal and buffs (taric)

In reality hp scaling isnt really needed for older tanks as they already have their incentives to build tanky, is just a way to make new tanks build tanky (they could add mr or armor scaling too, hp is just an option)
