Exactly.

Gordias is an example of necessitating healer DPS. It was quite literally impossible for even World First caliber players if their healers didn't DPS, which completely undermines dedicated DPS roles whose whole purpose is to kill things. That doesn't mean healers shouldn't contribute damage, just that their damage shouldn't be a requirement to meet DPS checks.
