I'd argue the real issue is a mix of not enough incoming damage and too much self-sustain on other classes making the healing itself less interesting.
    Tools that go completely wasted in most content. Even in savage. I don't need the kit I have.

    Please apply this logic to tanks. They should focus on tanking. Remove their entire dps rotation for a filler and dot. Then give them 20 buttons of mitigation that do the same thing. Now don't actually change content to warrant needing those buttons.
    Finally, make it so the healers and dps do all the mit for you.

    would be consequent.
    Healer needs to heal.
    Damage Dealer needs to deal damage
    and Tanks just needs to tank.
    No need for all the attack buttons

    Remember, healers who legitimately think like that person want the entire skill ceiling crushed downwards so you don't even have the option of having to "focus healing". Notice how they cite things that are nebulous and don't matter in the context of how XIV is actually played? No, just "healers are supposed to heal" and " if I want to DPS, I would play DPS." These strawmen have been knocked down since Heavensward, and if you looked at....most other games that has a healer role in and out of this genre, they are in fact, allowed to have some kind of engaging non-healer gameplay.

    A literal zero sum game. Cannot believe there is a functional human being walking the earth who is essentially saying "What if I need to spam Succor on the world's most recent raidwide + tankbuster" in the first twenty seconds of the fight. Or be absolutely BELABORED by having to apply, not even manage, more than a single DoT over just being a filler spam bot. At least actual bots don't peddle nonsense.

    Don't look at the GNB/old DRK openers! Might be forced to realize the cognitive dissonance of the NON-DPS JOBS having some of the HIGHEST openers in the game of pure damage output and APM when you focus on ROLES and not HOW SOMETHING ACTUALLY PLAYS.
