Because that was really, really, really boring after a while, and hard to actually do anything about. Soraka has the strongest reliable heal in the game, so it's bound to have a tradeoff. Instead of it taking half her mana to use every twenty seconds and then having her be unable to do her primary thing during that entire period, she has strong, frequent heals that she has to measure out.

It would be nice if she was still useful in solo-laning, but maybe if they end up splitting the self-heal to her Q and thus make ranking that first an option, she will be.
