This is the biggest reason why Tanks and Healers are designed to be braindead easy.

Healers "braindead easy"? Mao thinkings this little bits hyperbole. Mao is mostly BLM buts Mao also does little bits WHM. Mao finds being WHM SO much harder than being BLM. Is has to watch for many things! Red puddles, Boss, all Group Mates healths and conditions. If things go South, also has to find right time and place to rez Group Mate. Mao thinkings Healers jobs not easy! Maybe peoples thinkings this so because thems experienced Healers and is used to the difficulty?

You just answered yourself. Sure, if you just heal once in a while, it could be challenging, which is fine by me. If you're a healer main, one that has been doing most content? No I don't expect that you would it so - mind you "braindead easy" can always change if your party isn't up to the task

I feel like maybe the problem is healers have been made too easy for people that enjoy healing but they're still challenging/maybe overwhelming for non-healer mains. Especially considering a lot of levelling content for healers is more demanding than when they have their full kit. I'm a bad bad bad terrible healer but that's a me thing and I'm just incompatible with role but I feel like the healer role shouldn't be catered towards people like me over the people that actually enjoy the role. I suppose it's an inherent problem with the idea that we can do everything on one character because the truth is not all of us will be able to do everything regardless of if we have access to it. Lots of people say the same thing about Blm even though you and I might feel waaaay more comfortable with the kabooms. I'd be just as upset as they are if they tried to make Blm appeal to everyone by idk removing AF timers or making all of our casts instant. This is the thing I feel like the changes to healer since say SB have been made with non-healers in mind and this is why actual healers are bored/dissatisfied and they end up calling all the changes braindead because there's been nothing added -for them- for like......years at this point
