I'm not sure the "overheal" argument about Apotheosis is convincing. It's not dramatically more of a healing burst than many cooldowns healers find good use for (e.g. Avenging Wrath, and certainly not Tranquility). There should be ample situations where casting 3 or 4 Serenities or Sanctifies in a 30s period is easy to do effectively. When there aren't, when damage is too flat to make an extra cooldown attractive, CoH and Benediction will fit very well.
We do understand that the cooldown is causing you to cast many more spells without increasing their efficiency (other than the gain from working in a few Holy Words, which are more efficient than normal spells). That's can a dubious benefit in a world where mana is more important limitation. In an upcoming build we're going to try having Apotheosis reduce the cost of Holy Words while it's active.
Activated Spirit of Redemption is not likely to be a good talent for PvE. Its main benefits are 1) mana-free casting (not that unique, and would have to be on the power level of something like Mana Tea) and 2) total immunity to everything (something that usually causes complications PvE context).
