Are you having trouble reading what people are saying? There have been multiple posts in this thread that have given examples that don't center around actually having a healer in a dungeon or raid.

Use a potion :D someone has to.

They didn't scale potions for level 60s lol

If you're having trouble soloing a non boss fate then the problem is not lack of self heal. And if it's a boss fate then physick/second wind aren't gonna help as much as y'all think.

So the only time I see this being a problem is if you're soloing a boss fate while also queued, which is awfully specific, and entirely avoidable (just do other fates).

I'd honestly like to see some sort of turret skill in the future that let's us heal for a portion of the damage it does for a set duration. It'd be like a HoT skill, but your turret would gain all the aggro from it, and you wouldn't be able to use it outside of combat so there wouldn't be as much of a risk of pulling aggro before the tank could generate it. Understandably it would be weaker when using Bishop than Rook though......

Alexander Floor 1 .. Opressor and 0.5 are jumping and you run to the opposite where they will crash. The Time it takes for them to land is a huge Time Gap, which of course ... you could use for Healing your Mates.
Espescially when one of the DPS failed to kill one of the Adds under the Laser and the big Missile just exploded...
Tell me, the moment one of the HLR has around 1-2k HP because of this, would you rather use 2-3 Physics (My BLM does 400-450 each Physics) or just stand around doing nothing?

Do nothing and save yourself the MP.

Any good healer worries about themselves first so if you're going to heal anyone in that situation you should probably heal yourself. As a healer, if I have a choice between me dying and a DPS dying, I make sure to find a moment to raise the DPS.
