Dancer was a pseudo healer but was used more as DPS and offtank because of high evasion. SMN was pigeonholed into curebotting because of their larger MP pool. That's very different from a job that is designed to take on the role of healer.

Not to mention, past experience shows those who are not "traditional" healers work under their own set of mechanics, so there is plenty of identity to go around.
