Don't get me wrong. I don't agree with all of his opinions on the changes. The AST changes are a perfect example, it make sense in a speed running context but that's about it. Also he didn't seem to initially mind the dps nerfs because he was excited about the healing toolkit. But at this point in time I also wouldn't be surprised if he found healing a little bland and wished he were playing another role.

But with all that said and done, he knows healers incredibly well and he's as close to a healer influencer as we currently have. His opinion is still valuable, and so is his feedback. Considering that SE is already siding with casuals like crazy, it definitely wouldn't hurt having someone pull in the other direction.
