I think everyone agrees there's perks to HP regen. The argument presented, at least from my end, is that there are a good amount of situations out there where it doesn't make much of a difference.
The people who say there's no situations where it doesn't help I think are flat out wrong. For example, sometimes I pop my necro on, check if there's names up in HS and if they are I kill them then log back out. I don't stick around and clear stuff for hours. Where's the regen advantage if you're doing a bursts? There's lots of other examples as well.

Well... The advantage is if charm breaks or root breaks early and you get damaged and have to FD. Or if it happens before you've life tapped, which may lead to a situation where an equally geared Iksar wouldn't have died cause he was losing less HP liching.
The main point I think is, when you're creating a Necro you have a variety of options that boil down to 2:
Iksar - Regen which is clearly useful in many situations, but you level slower
Non-Iksar - No Regen so you will eventually have to lifetap more, but you level a bit faster.
If you are interested in plowing through levels and you don't want a penalty you can go non-Iksar, but then at the end game where the regen makes the most difference you won't have it? Doesn't make sense to me to power to the end game if you aren't interested in min/maxing there.
If leveling speed doesn't matter to you, I don't see any reason one would go any race except Iksar other than for fashionquest, and again... 34-60, you won't see your race at all because you will be liching.
