SCH main here, and I get that, but the point was...If you aren't using Bene then, then what are you saving it for? It exists to be used, after all...For newer content especially where not everyone's geared yet, the tank should be pushing your healing intensity a little with big pulls. With a lot of dungeons there's usually that turn or alleyway of pulls especially where you should save bene just in case the tempo is off. Once people are actually geared enough, I really only use Bene as a last second "oh no I may have dps'd a little too much".
I'm safe enough with my healing though that I can dangle a tanks life and focus on DPS though. For the whole healer DPS thing, I can't say I ever cared as a non-healer if the healer themselves are DPSing or not. Some people are either not that good, get too anxious to multi-task, or netflixing after their 10th dungeon for the day. It's really whatever. The extra 5 minutes is not going to pop a blood vessel. Probably a big reason someone like me can last a decade here and these more... intense about the subject only last a few months or a year.
No you're completely right. There's some level of high cool downs and people not using them for obscure reasoning that they might have to save them for later. Cant tell you how many times I never used my 2hour in FFXI simply because it had a 2 hour cooldown and I "might need it later" despite planning to logoff for the night in 30 min XD
