Should they all be considered equal in rights as human beings? Yes. Should they all be considered equal in rights for deciding how a surgery should proceed? No.

    Would you want the photographers being equal to the surgeon in a surgery? I know I wouldn't. In a tie here, the surgeon should make the final call.
    So yes, the world does work like that. In a tie between personal rights, the person with the most valuable opinion relevant to the problem at hand due to their role is always the best one to leave the final call to. While healers are needed to keep the tank alive, it is not within their realm to actually pull mobs. If the healer is not willing to compromise and there is a tie, and the healer's reaction is to not do their job of healing when the tank is doing their job of pulling, it's the healer who is in the wrong.

    An equivalent in this situation would be if one of the photographers was a nurse(i.e. healer). Would you want the nurse to simply refuse to help the surgeon if there was a tie and the surgeon decided to do something that the nurse did not agree with?

    The surgeon is not wrongfully "entitled" in this situation by being the tiebreaker. The same could be said for tanks who end up in the situation like I was in.
