Pure healers =/= good healers.
Sounds more to me like you're grasping at straws rather than anything remotely concrete. It's very possible that those healers were healing 8party content for the first time and had only done it as a dps. There's a distinct lack of evidence to denote anything about pure healers, and everything to suggest they were ridiculously unfamiliar with their own class. Which is possible, thanks to the fact that everyone can play everything on one character.

Course, I pretty much go flat out dps anyway so that if anything goes wrong the party just yells at the other healer instead. 83
