WHM: Heals 310 ST potency per second, 136.67 AoE potency per second, can use Cleric Stance and spam holy.
SCH: Heals 340 ST potency per second, 120 AoE potency per second, can use Cleric Stance and nuke with DoTs.
Take note of the corrections. THM is no weaker at healing than ACN, having infinite MP and access to the exact same healing spell (Physick) as ACN. All beside the point, because at endgame, SMN and BLM can't heal jack either despite both having Physick. They lack burst heals, AoE heals, and the MND to even try. Furthermore, Shadow Flare + Miasma II + Miasma + BioII + Bio + Aero are nearly as much potency as Holy spam, plus SCH has superior ST DPS which doesn't maul the caster's MP pool.

There is nothing at this time which is remotely like what you have suggested. There are no DPS jobs which can heal or tank effectively, and there are not wide gulfs between existing jobs of the same role. Titan Egi cannot hold Chirada against your healers' enmity. BLM heals an absolutely pathetic amount with Physick due to the complete lack of MND on i80+ gear. Offering even the individual utility of subbing in as minor add tank or something would be unprecedented.
