This is not entirely true. While the devs have never said healers shouldn't DPS at all. Yoshida has gone on record several times now saying they want it to be optional outside of early Savage clear attempts. Unfortunately, the game simply isn't designed to accommodate such a philosophy. Outgoing damage outside Savage is far too low for a healer to sit and spam heals. Unless this changes, the community will always expect healers to contribute DPS no matter what the devs say.
