Do you underatand what that massive CD reduction would do to the effective healing potency of WHM? It would take us from being the best by a small margin to being able to recover more HPS than a SCH and an AST combined over the course of a fight. It would be completely gamebreaking, like basically making your party immortal if your WHM didn't die.

Your complete and utter lack of understanding of how this game works and specifically how WHM works never ceases to astound me but this has to be the cherry on top of the of the sundae on top of the cake on top of the pizza on top of the brand new car - it is ridiculous.

Please for the love of WHM stop suggesting things until you understand how literally any of this works.

Your aversion to dps bothers me but not nearly as much as the rest of your proposal.

A bit of math so you understand how this works.

10% HP right now is around 4k for non-tanks. My Medica heals for about 8k. This means every Medica after a raidwide aoe will take 40 seconds off of all my timers. This is 1/3 of Thin Air and Lucid (WHM now has effectively limitless MP), about half of Largresse and Asylum which will mean a crazy amount of Largresse uptime (not that its needed, this WHM doesn't have to care about MP or GCD efficency), 2/3 of the time of Assize, Tetra and PI and SC and means DB is essentially always off of CD. PoM is the least of our worries at that point.

Also, the hate this WHM would generate (and I don't just mean irl from the AST and SCH communities, I mean threat from enemies) would be monumental. You are basically rewarding overhealing at this point (why not cast a Medica when everyone is only missing 5k health, the CD reduction is worth it!) and you will pull off of tanks this way without a doubt.

So no, your idea is literally the opposite of what WHM needs because WHM doesn't need to be able to solo heal Ultimate which is essentially what you're proposing.

Think before you type.
