Homogenization is natural way to prevent some roles from being gatekept. If You want example of roles gatekeeping, please look at this: GW2 Raid Stats - I can't even underestiamate how much not healing as druid was "bad" back then, when "jobs" had "Unique" buffs instead of global "Boons" (Universal buffs every class can self and party provide). By divering Jobs unfavorably people will make PF listings with Jobs they consider viable, and in theory all AST will have 2-3 times harder time of doing PUG runs.
ATM, I believe White mages were unloved child of StB.

And vice versa. Need to see DT Raids and EX before I can side with You.

Disgusting because it is Character/Personal attack. I prefer to challenge ideas, because in actual debate, where both parties can try to see own views from lens of opponent truth can be reach. Ad hominem is instant kill to such ways.
As WoW player I'll say that exactly problem I see, people calling for a solutions which will lead to WoW Mythic+ healers. It was not fun, it was stresful, it was always my fault despite some else can't "Check the cast". And what do You think about Heroic Dungeons during BFA? It was even easier that FFXIV. First Heroic dungeon I queued in BFA after a break - Tank and 1 DPS rocket boosted ahead of me (healer) and cleared the dungeon before I could find correct path to bosses. Thx God I wasn't kicked.
As far as I can see:
1 Button dps* - Partially valid, but it will be long back and forth why it's both yes and no. It also sounds lucrative when You have nothing to heal, but will turn into pain in the ass when high damage comes. (Mistweaver Monk from WoW Legion says hell. And hello)
More damage - Mostly not valid. Criterion and Savages already whoop ass to average Joe. Am I stupified when I see Ice Mage/Cure 1/Freestyler sam in Expert 90? Ofc I am, but what can I do but leave. If clueless healer will be a blocker for dungeon progress, they will be kicked, and they won't be able to do duty with players which will result in Duty Support usage or Quiting the game alltogether. Having enough sustain on tanks alliviate need to replace bad healer and I have no idea why DRK do not fit this logic. Ultimates should not be giggled with 0-1 healer, this is on design team to figure out.
