What if we got the Sub-Job System in FFXIV?

It'd also mean White Mage is the only sub job worth taking on any healer so what's the point?

With just what's in the post, why would any healer pick White Mage?

It doesn't seem to be suggesting taking anything away from current class kits, so a healer picking WHM would mean having two res buttons. Lightspeed feels like the better example.

Then that'd mean White Mage is completely useless as a sub job for every job aside from maybe Black Mage and then it's a choice between whatever other job offers the biggest benefit. You already see this with the current cross-role system - Eye for an Eye isn't a bad ability by any means, but there are simply much better options so there's no reason to ever take it.
