Theory on why Self Care shows up so often in high MMR data.

Lol no. The amount of Self Care I see on every team is mind boggling considering there's better perks and medkits that are way better. Plus as someone pointed out, script kids (not hackers; spending money to use cheats isn't hacking) equip Self Care to try and conceal their cheating ways.

Because it COULD be useful for solo queue. you won't always have a friend who can call out to you where to reset. self care lets you reset by yourself. the time investment might be big, but if there is only 2-3 people left, the 28 something seconds to heal will let you rescue a survivor with a lower risk of trading if the killer is close or camping.
the self care bad problem mostly comes from the instances of players, who self care after every injured state when they're sitting in front of a gen with 85% progress instead of finishing it, they heal which then the killer will just regress with pop, surge or whatever regression perk they have now.
COH is miles better, because not only is it 50% self healing speed, that bonus also applies to other types of healing, states and special addons. on top of being able to to be used by your whole team.
