No, but you did state "you only need to look at how many RDMs stop doing their actual jobs in favor of trying to do the healer's job to see what happens when we give DPS access to viable, on-demand healing."

I've been trying to get you to explain this statement -- how many RDMs do so, for clarity? -- preferably with some kind of tangible evidence or common knowledge, because as far as I can tell, there's no epidemic of RDMs trying to make their way as core healers. A handful of players stopping to throw out a heal on occasion is not a flaw of the job, it's just people throwing out unnecessary heals, like if a healer wasted a cooldown. But you continue to speak like it's a design flaw that they can.

But as you state, it can only be backed anecdotally, which makes it something of an irrelevant justification, and thus removes the weight from your argument.
Maybe there's someone else here with the patience to point out the issues with your counter-arguments, because each time I try I get more sophistry. Having a game mechanics discussion can be fun, but there's nothing new being discussed by this point. When you're asking me in apparent seriousness exactly how many RDMs I've seen use Vercure unnecessarily (and attempting to dismiss my arguments because I didn't keep tally marks on a notepad next to my desk), that's a sign that the conversation is getting a bit absurd, especially since you offer no objective evidence of your own. Also bears mentioning one more time that I never suggested that RDMs were running around being full-time healers.

I disagree what I think your position is; you disagree with what you think mine is. That works for me.
