The forums is an odd place to be asking this. The vast majority of players who would be reading the forums are folks who DO know they have to research their rotations. The folks the OP is complaining about are the ones who rely on the game itself to explicitly tell them if there's anything important they need to know.

Be aware that folks that actually research this kind of thing online are a MINORITY in this game - and any MMO, for that matter. A decent portion of these in-game-only folks will at least get the gist of what they need to do, well enough to at least perform a combo, but an unfortunate number simply assume that "learned at higher level" = "better skill to use". I remember a WHM that would heal only with Cure III (and either couldn't understand English or wasn't paying attention when we tried to inform him that was not a good thing). After all, Cure III must be better than I or II, right?

Actually... yeah, it kind of does. Healer and Tank rotations are a whole lot easier to understand and master than DPS rotations. It makes a lot of sense that they'd be the first to reach their damage peaks after SE revamped the system.
