A speckled pill heals for 100hp exactly, less if you have protections.
A speckled pill weighs ~5 times less than 1 wineskin.
1 wineskin heals for a *minimum* 400hp, probably more with edges/adaptations.
Healing from blood *is not affected by additional protections*, AFAIK (see below)
Totally free, wait 3 ticks get one.
Keep drinking and you can go over your natural hp, for the current tick.
Don't need tattoo/edge.
Really, it's a no contest.

You no longer feel hungry.
The power of your protections interfere with the healing.
.... and so on
EDIT:
I probably need to go check actual HP amounts that orcs with protections get
from blood, since they may heal less but not get the echo.
