    OKOKOK, let me clarify. Tank LB and Healer LB excluded... fine.

    DPS never want to be the one to LB. At least in competitive raid groups... If there is two melee who care about their personal DPS, they each say, "No you do it! lol". And fine, some people don't care about their DPS number and some people do. Let's not devolve this into a judgement against those who believe either way...

    And yes, in situations, LB can do less dmg than the player would otherwise because of the animation lock... It's not free damage, it has an opportunity cost.

    But...your whole argument is about why do they fight over it? It's obviously a trade off. The bigger issue is that you're working as a team, if something as petty as when to use a limit break costs you the fight, there might be more problems going on...

    The limit break and its animation is something that seems to get members to strategize when to use it. That is called teamwork.
