The longevity isn't an issue for WHM's either with bards, shroud of saints, and cure spamming until freecure triggers.
Bards that use mana song kill their DPS. A guild that didn't need to manage WHM mana could either drop a bard, or get bards to concentrate on damage. The reason SCH with medica will obsolete WHM is the same reason discipline priests obsoleted holy priests in WoW, even though holy priests had far better healing burst. Pre-shielding is just that good (and discipline priest didn't have an infinite mana pet spamming heals either).

Any healing meter will show SCH outhealing WHM _now_, even without buffs, on any fight.
