Install RankWatch and behold as almost at least one person in every random dungeon group you're in will be using at least one down-ranked skill or spell! Then call them out on it and watch as they gasp in horror at their newbness!
Examples of things I've found:
A Resto Druid using one rank lower of all of his healing spells!
A Rogue using rank 2 Envenom, when the best is 4!
A DK using rank 1 Heart Strike!
A Warlock using Rank 1 Seed of Destruction!
AND MORE!
So act now! Install this wonderful addon and help make the world (of Warcraft) a better place!

You can, and there used to be the benefit, but Bliz fixed it. There's no point to anyone using lower rank spells of anything, save the Frost Mage who just wants to chill someone with a level 1 fast casting Frostbolt.

People just don't update their bars/bindings all the time especially at 80. I actually did this on my druid but figured it out pretty quickly.

I didn't think you could use lower ranks of spells anymore?

Some Mages swear by Flamestrike Ranks 9 and 8.
But if you train your skills at each level, your bars automatically update with the max level (unless you specify a rank in a macro).
There isn't a real reason to use downranked spells anymore because they all cost the same (unless you're one of those Mages I mentioned).

Rank 1 Life Tap should always be first in a warlocks cast sequence if they have GoLT.

Hmm. Wasn't aware of the Dual Spec not updating all spell ranks, I bought mine at 80 and already purchased all the abilities for both my specs.
Glyph of Life Tap
for those who don't feel like looking it up.
Life Tap (Rank 1) only drains health relative to Spirit which makes it the cheapest way to proc the Glpyh.
Rank 8
vs.
Rank 1
