It's kind of tough on this point, not sure if you tank much, but there are DPS healers that are bad. It took me a while to see this since I'm a healer main and queue almost exclusively as a healer, but some healers try to DPS and are entirely unable to do so safely. Since the point of the discussion is low level dungeons, the tank could very well be low level and not be experienced enough to tell the difference between a good healer a bad one right off the bat. It is frustrating that people don't put their faith in you when you have absolute confidence in your ability, and I think that's one reason why it's such a volatile subject. You zone in with the intention of doing 100% of your job and more, and people tell you you're doing it wrong.
