This argument is getting tiresome. It's less about whether healer dps is optional or not and more about are you, the player doing everything you possibly can to contribute to the group. The only possible way for them to design this game to where there is zero expectation for healers to dps is to make it so damage done by trash and bosses is more heavy and consistent so that healers won't have time to dps. As long as the game continues with the design of how damage is currently taken, people will be expecting you to contribute outside of healing.
