He's so wrong though. D: I just wanted to play a new healer class. Not sure what the heck he's talking about with not wanting "more stress" for those who play tanks/healers. Why on earth would adding a new class create stress??

I like that they want to try implementing entirely new classes into FFXIV, though. Good. Creativity is good.
One could theorize he's referring to the meta. Paladin and White Mage have suffered significantly this tier-- Paladin throughout a good portion of the expansion. Back when HW released, you were straight up refused if you tried raiding on Paladin or Astro. I take that quote as more a "read between the lines" thing. Yoshi doesn't want to acknowledge people tend to focus on party comp perhaps more than they should. Adding another tank/healer when the current three aren't balanced only increases the probability one gets left in the dust yet again.
