    I think that's just it. WHM has too many dead buttons compared to Scholar. Scholar doesn't have a useless ability. Let's look at some facts.

    WHM has these endgame buttons which are never used in endgame content:
    Repose
    Fluid Aura

    WHM receives four levels of the same spell (Stone -> Stone IV) and two levels of another same spell (Aero -> Aero II)

    Scholar receives three levels of the same spell (Ruin -> Broil -> Broil II) and two levels of another same spell (Bio -> Bio II)

    Scholar automatically has an extra three buttons compared to White Mage because of this.
    White mage also has two very lengthy cooldowns (defined as above two minutes of cooldown):
    Presence of Mind
    Benediction

    Scholar has only one very lengthy cooldown :
    Dissipation

    Another takeaway here is that Scholar's Dissipation is more of a niche tool, whereas White Mage's Presence of Mind and Benediction are highly valuable skills that can't be used often.
    After this, Scholar receives extra abilities from having a pet, but loses two abilities on Summon and Summon II.
    Embrace
    and

    Whispering Dawn
    Fey Covenant
    Fey Illumination
    OR
    Fey Wind
    Fey Caress
    Silent Dusk

    The simple disparity in the amount of useful buttons as well as the activity of their useful buttons will easily cause this imbalance between WHM and SCH.
    With how Scholar has give or take 5 more useful buttons than White Mage, it's like they are an expansion ahead. Hopefully you all will look at this as something to change as well.
