Except that they would still be getting Graniteskin, Proshell, Esuna, and combat rez as well. If you think SMN has amazing utility, a CNJ DPS would completely and totally blow them away. They would be bringing absolutely everything that a WHM brings only with lower heals. Hell, a DPS with 18% Stoneskin basically renders the lack of practical heals completely pointless; when you can throw a shield on someone that soaks as much damage as a healer throws with one of *their* heals, it doesn't matter that your heals are terrible.

CNJ has too much stuff that would have to be removed in order for it to not completely and totally render other DPS irrelevant (or require such a large reduction in DPS to balance it out that it's only marginally stronger than tank DPS), and, when you're talking about a job requiring half of the abilities of a class be changed and/or rendered irrelevant, you're basically saying "yeah, this isn't going to be made".
