Provide enough of an obstacle that you exclude the less sophisticated cheaters and I believe you'll find that the more advanced programmers have better things to do with their time.

    There we go. It's a game of constant cat and mouse. Captcha's in game will just hinder the in-game experience for no valid reason. I'm all for more in-game stuff (maybe having weapons break, or nodes just refuse to spawn for a while, etc) to combat cheaters, but unless they devise an Eorzean-style captcha that would fit the in-game themes and aesthetics, I can't agree with this suggestion.

    Except there's PvP bots, FATE grinding bots, levelling bots, dungeon farming bots, etc. You'd have to delete the entire game to stop them.

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.

If you're capable of healing DRK back in ShB (or any tanks), then you'll heal EW DRK just fine.
