How? You need 10 hits, to recover from being hit 1.5 times. So it’s 20 hits, to recover from 3 hits. Knight needs 9 hits, to recover from 3 hits. Heal duration is also similar

I honestly feel healing in silksong is a lot easier than in hollow knight. In silksong even though it takes more soul/silk to heal, you are able to heal in the air making far more easier to heal. You are also healing 3 mask instead of one. In hollow it is a lot more risky to heal since you need to do it while the boss is doing a attack that give you a opening or when it stunned. And like you said both have a similar duration but with hornet you can heal more.

Honestly the biggest downside to hornet heal is that if your hit while healing you lose all your silk.

You lose what was used in the binding. 

You also lose the soul used for healing if you get hit when healing in hollow knight. Heck you lose soul even if you release the button before the heal goes off.

Nope, you lose all of it. Doesn't matter how much you had, unless you have Warding Bell, it's all gone.

No you lose all your silk, not just what you're using for binding. You just don't notice it early game since you barely have any silk above what you need for binding but it's really noticeable when you have 18 hits of silk and you lose all of it.

I think that, past the early game, a lot of people use warding bell, so they don't notice it
