The reason that Life and ES % nodes are so much better than other ordinary nodes is...

... because there are no "% increased maximum life" affixes on gear.
Think about it.
Spoiler
In b4:
Obviously I meant on magic/rare gear. Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:

Wow. You really hit the nail on the head. Good job.
Anyway, the actual reason that life and ES nodes are good is because life is fucking good. There are games out there where simply being a glass cannon will not suffice, and this is one of them. People have geared for damage before and will continue trying to gear for damage, and they have died. If there were +% life on gear, we wouldn't stop going out of our way for health nodes. We'd simply have more health. Even looking at desirable nodes that aren't life, they're still either defensive nodes or keystones that enable the build. You don't gear to deal damage. That comes secondary. Life and its associated kin are the bread and butter of this game. lel♯ jenk♯ ∞
