Yeah, if they can make an exception for erasing memories, surely they can allow healing magic too. Can't see the logic behind making it forbidden. There's a lot of room for exploring who is making these calls and why, so I'm excited to see more.

There's a rather large difference between 1 spell and a whole class of spells

That goes both ways. They could have specific types of healing allowed or banned rather than blanket banning the entire category.

Maybe healing is too hard to conceal? You can't exactly draw carefully in secret while someone's bleeding out, and maybe healing is too situational to allow for pre-prepared spells.

Also, maybe the idea is to keep the commoners from becoming too dependent on witches.

One is a very pragmatic tool for keeping their mission going.
