And most of your time as a healer during them is pressing your AOE button. There’s very few exceptions to this.

In 8-man content like normal modes, having two healers is very often redundant. One could easily solo heal with low effort provided the party aren’t clowning around while the other primarily does damage. Alliance raids are much the same.
My last runs of both Vanaspati and roulettes all needed healers. Tanks were taking large amounts of damage at near all times regardless of cds. Had to use my gcds because my ogcds were already spent. That’s not taking into account the raidwides and DPS getting slammed by avoidables. We later got Mhach and there was death all around. They never would have cleared the first boss without healers. So no-healing is not redundant. I have plenty of healing to do.
