I agree with you, Lifetap is not a bad spell, but of course there are situations where it's not appropriate. I spent 80% of my time in game playing with a cleric, and it was useful, anytime we were going for fast mob takedowns, between fights. If she was tanking higher level mobs, me using the spell would mean we would only rest if she needed to, and she didn't mind it. There's not a spell to give someone back their SP, so we made use of it.

But i do remember talking to Luna about it. She didnt like the spell either.
The spell is just a resource, i'd say use it when it makes sense to. Not in the middle of a fight because it can put you in some tough spots. But I really can think of some times when it was useful.
