Whether I think it was acceptable or not is neither here nor there because it had the bad-lily system. To say 'WHM SB but with the Misery system too' is something I can't speak for because it didn't exist, and is just theorycraft. I'd like to think that it would be decent enough though. Filler, DOT, Assize, Aero-3 can be thought of as a Phlegma of sorts, and then Misery, especially now that it's damage neutral.

Rather than asking 'is it acceptable for a modern healer', consider that the nonhealer classes have had 4 years of evolution upon 'their' SB version. The answer to the question then is another question: 'was WHM's SB damage rotation a good baseline to build off of going into SHB', to which I'd say the answer is 'yeh, if you fix the trash lily system it had potential'. After all, having 'an extra GCD (Aero3/Banish) that you use every (24/15) seconds' and 'a DOT (Aero2/Rescaled-Dia) that you use every (18/12)' is not exactly too far from one another in terms of design space, only in terms of numerical balance, so it'd be a bit hypocritical of me to say something quite similar to my own design idea is 'not acceptable', instead I'll just say it was an acceptable baseline to add 4 years of fixes and additions to, like the other roles got
