Some healers are taking the entire ogcd heal thing to the extreme.

Oh, they are. Absolutely. the vocal minority of min/max players get a lot of changes fixed in favor of their fucked up ideology of what they think is right for the game. Same thing happened in FFXI, which had a lot more creative freedom. The extreme homogenization is a flawed but valiant effort to minimize exactly how much ammo extremist players have to complain about actually unimportant shit. Unfortunately, square dev's best known way to skill gate fights ends up being with dps and not other kinds of checks,

At this point, if they don't want healers to have a lot of DPS buttons, I'm all for strengthening GCD heals while weakening oGCD heals so healers actually have a reason to use them, thus breaking up the one button monotony even more. Either that or introduce a mechanic to the other healers that requires constant attention like Astrologian seals.

so -naturally- you have these radical FFXIV players coming to the most obvious autistic solution "GCD is for damage" mentality that is inherently toxic to any other kind of player.

Please don't use mental conditions in negative context.
