So because other players are bad you should feel in the right if you're bad yourself? Nice way of thinking.
Anyway, purposefully deciding not to dps because "I don't feel like it" or "this isn't my role" even if you have plenty of tools to do so just denotes a bad/lazy healer. I won't force anyone to grow up and become a better player, not a healer not dpsing, nor a dps performing poorly. I won't write anything in the chat log. If I notice a player is bad I'll just try to do my best to avoid wasting 40 minutes in a dungeon. If all the other players are terrible I'll silently leave the instance. I'll just frown and acknowledge how bad that player was / those players were.
Also, a SCH dps skills are so powerful that with a minimal effort (again, dots+bane+shadowflare) you just naturally have a higher dps than a NIN or a MCH for example. You don't want to? You're free to do as you please, but you're intentionally being a bad player and wasting more time than needed in a dungeon that the game forces you to clear several times a week to obtain your precious esoterics.
But again, the main point here is the effort you put into something. A dps needs to be quite active to do good damage...a SCH that only heals can literally autofollow the tank and let the fairy heal, and with the current ilvl this is not even an hyperbole. To me, this is equivalent to a monk spamming bootshine while watching netflix. Bad, inept, lazy, disrespectful, call it what you want but the essence is the same.
