Healers can heal and dps, so let me ask you a question. If you had to put healing vs dpsing into percentage based scale, how much is each? Do you consider it be 50:50. Or do you consider it something like 75:25? Because if you want to reach agreement between dpsing and not-dpsing side, you need to first decide where the ratio is.

Also keep in mind, that if dps player gets tunnel visioned they put themself in danger (raise pls) while chomping off healers mana and swiftcast (who cares, right?). On the other hand when healer gets tunnel visioned while dpsing - it causes wipe. There is a huge difference in responsibility. Healer who refuses to dps is in no way same as dps who refuses to use dots. About the positionals... okay that's interesting point. I would say that if the monk can do everything else perfectly while missing the positionals it isn't as big issue as it might seem (they still hit some while standing in one spot) - as long as they do their part in the fight of course. If you don't use positionals, have crappy rotation and don't use dots that's a big no-no.
