I cannot believe everyone is hating on the bandage thing. Stuffing tons of apples down your throat doesn't heal you any more then applying treatment would. And the bandages don't insta-heal. They heal over a small period of time.
Why do we play on Minecraft? For the game mechanics for the awesome builds and atmosphere we are limited to the blocks and how we can make the surroundings look. Why don't we just forum rp? Because mechanics give everything structure and even the best rpers need structure now and again. IMO
To some point I agree with you Laurina, but think about it. If every wound would be fully rp'ed, why even have mechanics? A good rp'er can use the bandages in times where it'd improve rp only.
