Too many dots -> most of my damage coming from dots -> I consider it a dot class, not interested, especially when the job is allegedly supposed to be a healer.

I do not consider Afflatus Misery to be a "buildup" attack, and I agree that it should be fixed the sooner the better. I mean, do X combo X times, get to use X finisher after building up to it. Restart. To me that is more fun than managing dots, and is gameplay I would tolerate on a "healer" which SE refuses to give anything to heal. Dot gameplay leans on passive, I lean more towards active.
You know... you dont have to enjoy every class in the game? Honestly i think divergence of playstyle is a good thing and a dot class would be a divergent class that feels completely different from anything else.

I also dont think adding an extra dot to whm would actually do any harm or make it a discount dot mage. It would however give another thing for healers to manage dps wise and lets face it, that is something all healers sorely need.
