The shorter cooldown is because the shield, unlike heal, can't be permanent. So they need it to be on a lower cooldown and stronger or else why get this when you can get heal and still be fairly healed by the time heal is half done cooling down if you're cafeful, yet your shield is gone after 4 seconds.
