Why doesn't revitalize(resolve rune increases healing) work on bonus health regen?

I'm mostly referring to champion abilities or passives which increase health regeneration. Examples being:

DrMundo passive and ultimate.

Garen passive.

Singed ultimate.

Volibear passive.

Revitalize doesn't increase the healing of bonus health regeneration effects. Volibear passive, Mundo ultimate, they increase their hp/5(health per 5 seconds). I think revitalize should increase bonus health regeneration champions get. I've taken revitalize on champions like Mundo and Volibear before thinking it would be good on them but it doesn't help them at all(except for Mundo Q if he kills a target with it).

Thoughts?

Agreed, this is really weird.

Intuitively, Revitalize feels like it should be an amazing rune for Dr. Mundo, since healing is a major thematic for him. But if you play him for a while, you notice that this is a trap and it doesn't work how you thought it would.

Wish they would change it for these cases.

I'm taking a wild guess here but I'm pretty sure Regen isn't coded as a heal
