No one's going to be forced into different roles, but you'll feel so weak and unwanted that you will eventually fall into something you don't have as much fun playing.
I was scholar until now and tbh, with the changes they made on the already existing skills of WHM, I have now more fun with WHM and am planning to raid with it, even if WHM have no party bonus or buff.
My static is okay with it as long as I play what I like.

And actually, with WHM mana now, he has a really good recovery for progress.
So I don't think any healer could feel unwanted.
