It is because we can risk dying that makes self resurrecting a team use. For instance, I always stay back a bit during legions on the confluence part of hard vog. I do it so that the baddies aim at me instead of my teammates in case they have trouble getting in the cave to hide. I act as a decoy because I can come back. It also allows us to do more risky things with a bigger reward when shit hits the fan. Say I'm defending a conflux, teammate dies and we're getting swarmed. I can either retreat and risk them sacrificing or get in there, do some damage, die, come back, and do more damage.

Why hide against the legions? Why not just kill them? As for the confluxes, there are better options than waiting for other people to die or risking death yourself. Radiant Skin will allow you to rush to their defense with minimal risk - and you'll be more effective when you're there.

Because hiding is a better option since it minimizes the risk of someone dying (and not being revivable on hard mode) once people are hidden. Not like we have to kill legions anyway. And to the second point, I'm taking a major shit hits the fan moment. Swarm of baddies, teammate's down, and you're injured. The armor boost will only go so far.
