    [2] Pushed to the extreme, yes, invulns already have that kind of "issue"...with WAR also being the best one at this, with the shorter CD and the self-healing capabilites... that would be increased even more with the target removal.
    [1] At that point, though is anything QoL? To use the Dragon Sight example again, would it? There's the one in a million chance, after all, that it'll come off cooldown right at the last 1% of boss HP before enrage and the DRG will need every drop of that 10% buff to carry the day. There's the chance that SMN DoTs being applied instantly instead of keeping their earlier artificial delay will have shifted an oGCD 600 ms earlier into a fight and therefore have allowed for one more use before a jump which in turn avoids enrage due to the extra 300 potency over the course of a fight.

    To what extent are we going to belabor an insignificant advantage with an insignificant chance to see use in an insignificant portion of fights as if were something worth balancing around when the mere standard deviation attached to every attack, let alone Crit or Direct Hit chance, has several times their effect in every fight?

    [2] Then... what? Remove all variance in tank toolkits? How often do you honestly expect that a Warrior will be the last man standing in any way that NF can generate a difference? I'd suspect the frequency of that particular potential clutch moment will be a heck of a lot less than what Clemency already provides.
