A proposed solution for having players become better players.

No thank you. I main healer and am there to heal not DPS. My role is to keep people alive not to deal damage. SE has said that the content is designed so healer DPS is not calculated into the fights why would they add DPS into any bonus calculation?

Healers DPS is needed for every content, cause more DPS = quickest kills/dps check. It's not a matter of being necessary/mandatory or not, you're just a bad healer if you're not DPSing. It's like having two hands but using just one of them all the time.
It's almost the same thing for DPS when it comes to stuff such Second Wind, Rend Mind, Dragon Kick ect., with the only difference than healers DPS does affect progression a lot.

Just like in real life, if something is not mandatory or enforced by some type of law, not everyone will bother to do that. That's how things work. I think everyone needs to learn to push themselves to the limit while expecting the minimal from others, and also understand that it's their right not to DPS if they don't want to. I'm a main healer on both my main and alt and I tend to DPS a lot, but this forceful mindset of "you NEED to DPS if you want to be a good player" just disgust me.
