Healers are way too strong in large scale PvP.

if the healer was decent, yes it did require it. Because it was really the easiest way of doing it. I mean, come on, we didn't wear vit accessories as healers in seal rock because LB's were easy to deal with. But even in 3.0, it wasn't expected to solo a healer; you could drive them off because they could run to the next objective and didn't turtle anywhere near as much.

As for the germans, no offense but if you think its hard to burst a healer down now, you try it when you need to use 3x the abilities just to do a decent burst, or dealing with BLMS that mass sleep you or mass cometeor spam. I played it from the start of HW, and no it was not better. People complained just as much then.

People complain and will always complain. The goal is to satisfy 75% of the people. MNK was SCH's weak point. But SCH was tough for a lot of others.

the turrets didn't even tickle a player.

Having been killed by a Turret I would say that the tickle did enough.

I have played pvp since 2.3 and i can say it was WAY better in ARR and in HW, sure there was few issues in both expansions but overall balance was more than fine. I was against most nerfs in HW like SMN one when they could macro their burst as timed purify was direct counter for that or cycled CD's if you were a tank, after that was over said SMN was more or less free kill so there goes "OP SMN" argument. Only things that needed tweaks was those running insta-cast astros and monster WAR that somehow went under the radar trough whole HW expansion.

I'm starting to sound like a broken record SYnestra, but I think people are just remembering the good and forgetting the bad. I don't really oppose it if the players want it, but I odn't think people should expect it to fix anything. We had three seasons of the feast with chat and HW moveset enabled, and it wasn't a solution then.
