Mages can have high HP with equipment choice. Addiitionally, locks are not guaranteed the dispellable VW sac or healthstone, and especially not in pvp. Out of Shards, anyone? Personally, I rather liked a demon mastery / soul link spec with the imp out. 15% more damage as the imp approached death taking my damage and was sacrificed.
You should know better. Standing still = Death. Hellfire just gives double death via outright suicide, though admittedly voluntary suicide has its moments. It doesn't cause an equipment penalty... anymore and allows locks to bypass certain doors in World PvE situations.

I'd be all right with this, if there were some way to drop the cast time without PoM, like a warlock's Soul Fire
Really? Eww. I'm glad PoM is a talent. Soulfire is really unimpressive even with the half second off due to its shard requirement (and no way to make it instant). Plus, you get FREE shadowburn equivalent, fireblast, has better cooldown (8s vs 15s) and doesn't require a shard.
