I'd alos like to remind you that the average APM of players is lower than what they should be. The average healer in logs is GCD healing and not properly managing their OGCD's which results in a lower APM.

Just for example, when I play astro on ex2 in DT, I usually have an APM of 39. When I play sch with astrologian as my cohealer, they always hit between 31-33 APM.
39 APM over a 9 minute fight is 351 casts. 33 APM over a 9 minute fight is 297 casts. It's a big difference, and you can get away with not using your abilities as a healer. Even just a 6APM difference is really big.
That’s an entirely different point, I’m refuting your claim that APM on the healers went up because you substituted broil for more freedom in oGCD usage, this is just simply not true given the stats for promise vs anabeisos

1.5 second cast made healing easier and uptime easier and offered nothing in exchange, it simply made the healers easier, there is no two ways about it, the idea that a worse player had a lower APM means literally nothing in this context
