White Mage is supposed to be the master of the Club. In any class based game, developers will forgo easy balance decisions and traditional roles to make certain classes have an image. Look and feel are as important as balance. When Paladin used to use a Staff instead of the Sword and Shield that is the main image of a Paladin, SE had to buff Shield.
If WHM are suppose to be master of Clubs why do PLDs have higher club skill >_>?

FYI you are incredibly too serious about this. You seem to be missing obvious trickery!
