It's that mindset which is toxic, and leads to healers letting people die because of DPS issues, or being downright insulted by lazy DPS who are looking for a scapegoat.
And if they can't DPS while also healing in this game, I don't know what to tell them. Maybe they're just awful? White Mage can AFK after applying Regen, Asylum, Medica 2 if needed and just DPS for like half a minute before being assed to switch back to healing unless it's the hardest content in the game that nobody plays.
