Deleting WHM is not any kind of feasible solution. Especially with arguments like an AI fairy is enough to support a full 8-man raid. Many WHM mains, myself included would be heart broken if it was deleted. Even some who don't play WHM at all would be disheartened and upset by this change.

I don't use WHM in higher end content because of its lack of utility, but this doesn't mean I don't enjoy playing the job. On the same token, just because I enjoy the job doesn't mean it is devoid of shortcomings. I can say the reverse for AST. It brings TONS of utility and is a powerhouse healer, yet I can't stand it and don't use it for anything. That ties into the job's design, and just because it's been buffed to the freakin moon doesn't mean I am going to enjoy playing it.

In short, saying the job isn't engaging or doesn't have anything that is desired isn't necessarily true. What is true is WHM doesn't bring anything that AST and SCH doesn't have themselves, plus the other healers can also increase rDPS. It is for that reason alone that they have been left out in the cold since late HW, which in itself is also an issue in the healing community.
