Honestly, I disagree with this. Separating the 2 gauges into purely for healing and purely for damage strips away meaningful choice from the job. SCH is unique among the healers where it currently has additional considerations to make when optimising damage. For example, instead of only thinking "Will this tool be up again when I need it?", SCHs also have to think "Can I get away with not using Soil here?" or "Can I burn ED here and have Aetherflow be up in time for when I need Indom?" or "Should I burn all stacks here and use Dissipation? Or will I need Seraph within 30s?", all these are unique considerations that only SCH has.

By separating the gauges into purely for one purpose, you are stripping any extra considerations away in favour of making it just like any other healer in terms on optimisation. This does not appeal to people like me who want meaningful choice. If people want totally lossless healing with no extra considerations, there already are 3 healer jobs they can play, I'd rather not see any remaining vestigial thought required to be gutted out of SCH with no replacement.
