Healers aren't popular for healing anymore. Healers are popular for a low-effort free-carry ticket into harder content. There are healers clearing Savage with 40% uptime, spamming one aoe GCD heal and hitting random buttons in panic and they get away with it. Lazy players love it.

That's awful design and should never be the selling point for a role.
