Why is Heal supposed to speed people up in addition to its base effect?

And why does it influence an ally too instead of only the user? It seems quite random to me for a summoner spell to have all these "uncalled for" perks.

Is this because of the existence of summoner 14 ? (more counterplay -> more power)

it's an escape tool, and the reason it helps an ally with a speed buff and heal is so they could make the heal weaker than summoner 21 so mid laners who don't take ignite because they prefer range (Xerath Ziggs Orianna ) have to actually think based on their match up. It may also have the "applies to ally" thing so it would become meta in bot lane as opposed to when the adc took summoner 21
