Taika for OF president. That was a point well made.
So does someone from the Healer DPS Deniers Sect want to even the scales? There's a video evidence of healer being able to heal through the content with 17% total uptime.
Make a video of a run where you ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY couldn't spare a GCD to dps... And that'd make a point as well. So far all I'm hearing is "I can't heal for lyf don't expect me to dps REEEE".
And no, I've had runs where tanks were absolutely made of paper. Even if you do have to spam heals, not every run is like this. Over 99% of runs are not like this.
Or that's a bad lie right here.

I don't have a vid but I had a run of a certain Hard trial that our 2 healers were healing all the time but couldn't keep up . To be honest, we were all not playing up to par, we had a lot of newer/returning players in the group, myself included, that were not dodging properly and messing up. It got so hard I, as summoner DPS, had to help out with heals, transfer mp, and do multiple rezzes - sometimes even without swiftcast, especially if it was a tank - in order to succeed (and got no comms...grr..but I digress).
So they didn't have time to DPS.

Of course that's not the norm, but sometimes stuff happens.

Also let's make this happen:
