Did we really need to remove a dot and bane from scholar as well as shadowflare so it could play exactly the same as white mage?

I understand if the devs suddenly want to change the healers to not use a lot of damage abilities. But then they need to give us something else during downtime in more of a support roll. Something. Because if they simplify it any further our downtime will consist of spamming a single ability.
But its not the same as WHM was, WHM also lost an aoe DoT. Don't you mean the AST DPS kit? Combust and Malefic. Ironically though now both WHM and AST have more aoe tools with Misery and Assize for WHM and Earthly Star for AST.
