So, let's say you require both Toughness and Great Fortitude for something that's worth it in the character's eyes, and you want to be able to heal out of combat with as little pain as possible.
So, which one do you take? Troll Blooded, which makes you fatigued in sunlight (arguably you can negate this with a Parasol from Sandstorm), or Poison Healing which requires...well...poison, but is also relatively fast.
Cheap ale counts as poison, meaning maybe 1 sp per (Con Mod) of healing, which means this healing can scale up, and is much cheaper (and faster) than Lesser Vigor. It does mean it's not *strictly* free (even if it's so cheap is may as well me), but having a use for the poison berries these half wits pick up when foraging would be nice.
But, Troll Blooded grants Regeneration, which means you don't die from a massive hit, you are just put on the floor. Which, with LA 2, at ECL 3, seems like a pretty good idea, even if you're like me and your Con is 22.
