Why is Summoner healing so nerfed, even compared to other DPS?

I joked about the reason why they even kept that button on the hotbar was because they only realized how barren their hotbar looked the moment they axed literally almost every button they have from ShB going into EW.

I thought it was more of a class identity thing than anything since ACN as a tactician was meant to work with all 3 roles to a particular degree but not in the same degree as a specialized role. We still have Radiant Aegis as a callback to tank/defensive egi and physick was meant for healing / introduction to SCH route.
That being said, the hotbar definitely feels empty when virtually every skill is just another flavor of Ruin until 80+...
