Why people don't appreciate high dps?

It doesn't surprise me if he finds DPS more fun. Tanks are DPS with simplified rotations, an aggro combo (and an AoE aggro skill or 2 or 3) and mitigation cooldowns.

Assuming the tank and healer are half-decent, DPS carry the run, as in making the run a lot shorter.

Uh what? I'm sorry but I can say for a fact that my PLD has a far more in depth rotation than SMN, and probably a few others. The biggest thing here is with tanks we also have to stance dance, on top of maintaining our cds, managing threat, managing our own health if the healer dies, managing placement of the boss so the dps running around to the front of the boss for some random reason don't get cleaved. Now one could argue dps have to maintain cds, but then again they don't have to worry about wiping the group if they don't have certain abilities ready at the right time.
