And you might be burdend by me encountering several healers before you who worked very hard not to earn any amount of trust.
    But PLD and RDM are just 1 job within their role, and the only ones with (potent) targeted healing on GCD. You're supposed to be trusting your healer because you have no choice in many (/most?) party set ups (when there are no RDM or PLD).

    I main a paladin - and while there are many more reasons (habit, liking the class etc.) as to why: This is actually one of them. That I'm pretty much always in a party set up with emergency healing. I consider myself a good (enough) paladin and refrain from using Clemency as long as the healer is fully there (not dead, afk or bot-like) or to trigger Divine Veil when I'm offtank in 8-man content.
    Leveling (or playing) my other tanks is always a bit frustrating because sooner or later I end up in a situation where I cant help thinking that I could have saved that with my paladin.

    So I actually do have the luxury not to blindly and completly trust my healers - by paying the small price of playing on of the jobs who dont have to.
