It's all about trying to get casual players who aren't very good at healer and don't really want to learn, clears in Savage and Ultimate. That's why the role is butchered.
I don't really want the game to be all about who does the most damage wins the fight and the dev team doesn't want that reality either. Savage is not supposed to be the root purpose of a job, it is an extension of the base game that is designed to be as hard to beat as the game designers are willing to go, since it is very easy to make unbeatable content, but incredibly difficult to make content that is tight on "correctness" in playing a set of 8 jobs without blasting the entire group into oblivion.
