Short CD is still a CD no matter how much SCH mains try to cover it up. Shielding works different than healing, for several reasons. I don't know why SCH players try to cover the job's weaknesses and mechanics with flawed excuses. The job is amazing, and so is WHM and AST. It's just not built to do the same thing the others are built to do. It can main heal with effort, but both WHM and AST can also off-heal with effort. They compensate with burst what SCHs do with sustained. It's not ideal, but the party can manage it with a little effort. I don't know why people are ok with making an effort to accomodate a SCH main heal but it's the end of the world when a WHM/AST want to off-heal.
