You can drop multiple totems for a party to enjoy the benefits of - I can bless someone once. In situations like Onyxia and MC boss fights you can just as easily run in and drop a totem in range as I can to bless the target. 20yd range versus 30 yds in places like that make for minimal "advantages" and you know it. If you're counting auras I have to stay within range of the MT and anyone else it would apply to for them to enjoy the benefit. I'm the mobile totem in that scenario.
