I never said MCH dps gets lower, I just said that they are at a huge disadvantage whenever there is more than 1 target to hit. The gap is already there before multiple targets, the addition of more just makes it bigger.
The DPS of bard improving does not affect the DPS of MCH whatsoever, there is no "disadvantage". That like saying "Bard is at a HUGE!1!! disadvantage when there is a summoner in the party in A2S!!!!", which is clearly false... Then you ask, "how is bard related to summoner?". And I rebuttal with "How is MCH related to BRD?". Of course you'll reply "They are both ranged". And then upon realizing that SMN is ranged, you'll see that it doesn't matter. You don't see BLMs complain about SMN in similar situations because it's a non-issue. It's kind of hard to make all class the same dps, when all of them (barring all 3 melee classes) have RNG elements. Because of this simple impossibility there will be a natural ordering of the classes, where in certain situations, one class will be better than another class. And even then, some classes in very out of the norm situations can get unnaturally high dps just by favor of RNG (which was likely the case when you see bard at the top of the distribution, but not in general). I also could make the case that monk is at a disadvantage to bard when in a multi-target scenario, but no one would care, similar to you're argument with MCH.
