Heroics don't require proving grounds -- if you have a premade group.

If you want to *randomly queue* for heroics, then yes, you need proving
grounds.  Blizzard is trying to improve the quality of random matchmaking
by ensuring that everyone is competent at playing their chosen role.

At least that's the theory; I'm sure it doesn't always work that way in
practice.  But at least they are trying.
