My opinion on this is that the greater skill is shown from knowing when to do either.

If you have a SCH, a DRG and a MNK it's probably not a good idea to pull full floors how ever if you have a White Mage, a Black Mage, and a Bard it's almost a waste of potential to pull lest than at least half the floor per pull since they're potential is wasted on single targets.

It also shows good judgment for the Tank to consider the capabilities of the healer and DPS through an examination of gear and seeing if they feel that their skill is up to SRing.

No one should be forced to do either but efficiency always achieves faster runs than failures cause by stubbornness and clashing Egos. And no matter what the player's preference efficiency is one thing every one should be looking for. Just SRing isn't ALWAYS the most efficient method but again the real skill is shown by being able to pick the most efficient method and A DPS/Healer should have already recognized the same just by the party make up. If any one has an objection to a "Normal Run" for that team setup then it should be discussed before pulling which, at most, would only add about 10s to the run. (30s with Consol/slow PC typers)
