As a healer main since mid HW, I struggle to make sense of the complaints in this topic.

One issue people have in most games is that they mistake more things to press as complexity. This is not the case. That's just busywork. Pressing one key repeatedly is no different than pressing 4.

I got really good at cleric stance dancing but didn't complain when it was removed. It was more of a hassle than anything.

People largely just fished for balance on the old card system, so they made every card balance, and people complain.

They adjust things based on how people play the jobs, and people complain.

At this point my belief is that people complain just for the sake of it. If they had nothing to complain about they would just complain about having nothing to complain about.
