Then you're being blinded by your prejudices. Sorry but there's no way to sugar coat it.

I ran the Bojza raid content as a DNC with healer actions to heal and I promise you that I didn't care one little bit what my damage was nor could I tell you what sort of numbers I was doing as it just didn't matter to me. It was a completely different change of pace even if it was fairly simplistic content and it was all the more enjoyable for it. If you gave me a healer that was basically DNC with aura and heal procs that had DNC's DPS rotation but did about the same damage as a WHM chad turreting, I think it'd be more popular than you suspect.

Agreed. in terms of our DPS kit they are one and the same thing, a lot of the time it simply doesn't matter which one we are pressing as we're overhealing full HP bars either way. As an example: 24 casts of Rapture, 0 Solace. 80% overheal on those Rapture casts. And this is RubEX. More casual content such as dungeons and 24 mans paints an even worse picture.
