Another reason why WHM is actually the worst starting healer and is actually a massive new person trapWhich is partially the fault of the leveling experience. Since Conjurer is the only healer starting job a lot of people will have started with that and learned to rely on Cure/Cure 2 during their leveling process, because the job has barely anything else for 49 levels.
But that reliance creates bad habits. You see it again and again, healers that just spam GCD heals and completely ignore their oGCDs since that's simply what their gameplay has been for the entirety of ARR.
Now put those healers on a job that relies on using oGCDs and you have a disaster in the making.
Starting with a shield healer that encourages passive regen which is super powerful at level 1 is the best way to learn the right habits on healer day 1
