Oh, it's not for me (well, unless I'm too lazy), hence my doing it ahead of time if it'd be an actual obstruction in the coming round of mechanics. Have you met the average DF goer?

They are, but I don't think they hit hard enough to need more than Oblation + TBN. Heck, TBN may have been enough raw...

Maybe not all heals are smart heals, but having some as an option for oGCD would defenitely fill that purpose.
It's just the AoEs on which it'd really matter to me. Granted if we did something crazy like giving WHM a chain-heal from would-be overhealing (*cough* they treat healing as water-aspected anyways *cough*) as to increase its heal efficiency and cut down on button bloat, I could see it being attached to a bit more so long as it was still a pretty unique feature, but I just want to stop seeing personal defensives go to waste the moment not everyone in the whole party has roughly equal sustain available to them (at which point you just whip out an AoE oGCD anyways).

...That and I'd actually like to increase healer offensive ppgcd and reduce their free healing over time such that there's actually some significant value to be afforded from healing requirements being lessened through others' sustain.

I also have no opinion on that Shake it Off comment as I was least active throughout Stormblood. My static kicked me out for having a full time job that required me to go in to work when called in (They knew in advance this was a possibility) and left me sour so I was very casual and so I'm not really familiar with old SiO as I also was playing RDM at the time.
Ahh, damn, that sucks. I went from basically the same in StB (though I kicked myself rather than letting anyone else do it) to starting into grad school + part-time work later into ShB. Still in that now. I used to at least PuG a bit on my tank alt, but I've lost a bit of that willpower over time.
