    And I believe this game is big enough to have multiple options to satisfy different tastes.

    Note that I've never called it the "2 Healer Model"; all simple with only one deviating from that. It's always been "4 Healer Model"; that we have FOUR healers, so why not make them EACH different from the others to appeal to different playstyles and players, the better to ensure that everyone has at least one, and possibly more than one but at least one, that they can enjoy.

    Did you truly, in all the times I've said it, never understand this?
    I mean what everyone else was suggesting was also a "4 Healer Model™" because while reworking all four healers, they would all still be distinct with different playstyles. The only difference is that you specifically want to right-click White Mage and hit "Lock." But everyone and their mother was saying that White Mage could still be simple, just not completely devoid of choice during downtime, and that was also quite different from the other general desires of wanting Scholar to use DoTs, Astrologian to lean into support in some capacity, and Sage becoming a caster DPS lite. The fact that you did not acknowledge that as also a "4 Healer Model™" makes it very confusing as to what actually qualifies and what doesn't.

    You've always talked about how you were giving up the other three healers, implying you would rather not give them up, but are willing to sacrifice your idea of good healer design to placate us skill-ceilingists, but now when one of us is offering two of them back, you don't want them?
