And this here is the problem with the healer role.

You say the only way to bring more healers into PF is to reduce their responsibilities, but the people who chose to play healer have chosen to accept those responsibilities, and taking away responsibilities from them is unfavourable.

You already said that there's no way to convince a DPS player to pick up healing, so what's the point of catering to the exact opposite of what healers play the role for?

It's precisely the stripping of responsibilities that make veteran healers feel less important and causes them to quit. Yet your idea of fixing any healer shortage is to further increase how useless healers are. Do you not see a problem here?
