Heal spells Vs Cure spells

[Saber]

So I was going through and leveling up my Final Fantasy 1 characters. I was playing with a fighter, white mage, Black Mage, Monk. Anyways I was spaming items in my inventory that have the heal spell. When it came down to healing outside of battle I had to chose between Cure 4 or Heal 3. So I wanted to ask, would you rather use cure spells, or would you like to use heal spells and hope you survive?

I like to live dangerously.

Well, if you're outside of battle, then what's going to kill you?

Usually, I use Heal spells but it depends on the situation. If more than one person is has full HP, then I'll use Cure as Heal seems like a waste in that scenario.

I voted cure although going through the game I used heal more. Weird huh?

I almost always go with the cures.

For me it depends. If I see that my entire party is in dire of healing, then I would go for Heal spells. But if only one of my party members need healing, that's when I toss the Cures.
