The aren't "stronger" they're just in possession of a particularly marketable skill. WHM, realistically speaking, is the weaker of the two by a wide margin (poor raid dps, accuracy, overhealing). The fact is, they're taking something from WHM that makes it valuable, and they need to replace it with something that makes it equally valuable. Otherwise people will get WHM to lvl 16, or 34 for stoneskin, and then trash it in favor of the more versatile/useful healers.
