Mounts - the "need for speed" meta - time for a quick rebalance?

With the croc mount nerf / "fix" incoming, it might be time to explore how to make all mounts more attractive.
At the moment the only stat which drives the mount meta is the mount movement speed. Stuff like the HP pool, jump height etc are mostly ignored.
I believe that a lot of the mount system doesn't exist like mount abilities etc, but a quick fix to the mount balance is possible.
Rebalance the mount HP pool, and as long as the player is mounted the mount HP pool should give the player a passive base damage mitigation boost. This way slower mounts could become more attractive for certain situations, like combat and travel.
