    I don’t get why so many people see it as either the absolute minimum or the absolute maximum. There’s no in between. Either you’re a 1 nuke, 1 DOT healer, or you’re a high octane max optimization ninja triple weaving DPS. There is no nuance. There’s no middle ground, or not even middle ground but just down the block—a casual stroll upstream from the stagnant disease-infested puddle that is healer DPS gameplay. Everything or nothing.

    The problem of people seeing something as having 2 states is a problem that affects more than just the healer kit. Like the people who only see contributions as either "you are playing optimally and you clear the fight" or "you are playing suboptimally and you wipe and it's all your fault and your fault alone". Many people on the forums do like to take their argument to an extreme and refuse to see a middle ground, like if you look at discussion about the melee DPS jobs, people usually sit on the "delete all positionals" camp or the "restore all positionals" camp, when there could also be an answer in the middle, like let MNK have all the positionals and let RPR have none.
