Not sure when this became a thing, but...

A huge issue, which I haven't seen mentioned yet, is when DPS enter the boss area and immediately say "I'm not taking the walker."

In most of these instances the statement isn't part of a larger conversation whether the group decides to knockback the bombs, or heal through them.

As a well geared healer I'm usually fine with whatever (healing through, dpsing, etc.), even if it ends up with bombs staying in place and enemies not being repositioned. However, the fact that almost no DF groups agree on the strategies here or even bring them up is the real problem.

I've defaulted to saying that I will give a commendation to whomever takes up the walker if it starts to get messy (or passively commend someone who moves them). I think instead of arguing which strategy is correct on the forums when most people wont even communicate it in-game or read it here, it's far more useful to just reward compatible play in others.
