    This would break PCT in ways you do not understand.
    After downtime occurs, very often in a fight people will go directly into their burst windows when the next phase starts. This happens quite often as fights often line up like this, P2 into the intermission in FRU is a good example of this.
    If PCT could only paint with a target, you have 2 scenarios:
    1. PCT has to pre-paint before the boss goes untargetable, potentially failing a DPS check as up to 9 seconds are spent doing absolutely no DPS.
    2. PCT has to paint once the boss becomes targetable again, thereby either misaligning its raid buffs with the rest of the party, or forcing the entire party to burst around PCT.

    This is not a good solution.

    Once again, Ultimate is the only content in the game this is a problem. There is no reason to burn the job to the ground just because of ultimate fights being designed around excessive downtime. Hell, I'd go as far as to say ultimates would be much harder and engaging if there was less downtime.
