I think this is the most important thing: "Different players seem to have different ideas of just what healing spells should do."
I also think that no spell should bring back the dead. Leave that to the psycho NPC THMs. When we fall in game, we're knocked out, not dead. Hence why we're 'weakened' or on the 'brink of death' when we're raised. So there's no reason Raise should be able to reverse death, no matter how recent.
I've always been of the opinion that Cure/Cura would reduce/numb pain, slow bleeding, and jumpstart the healing process. Repeated use over a period of time can speed the healing process, whether it be a wound or broken bone. I don't like that any spell could be used to immediately seal a wound or mend a bone. I also think that real medicine is very important in Eorzea. Bandages, salves, medicinal potions. There are chirugeons, aka surgeons, too.
I think instead of even attempting some sort of standards, that players who are RPing together need to just agree on what certain healing actions will do.
It will be interesting to see other responses though, and see how everyone else does it.
