Healers already feel like the least varied role in terms of both playstyle and class aesthetics to me. Even if we did get a major playstyle shakeup (doubtful after Stormblood), the aesthetics are still all similar (robes, lilies, sparkles, butterflies, bright lights). Whereas, tanks have a dark theme, a light theme, a traditional warrior and a tech focused tank coming in ShB.
I mention this in the healer forums about how to balance the role. They told me to shut it and go away.... 2.0 felt so good because WHM was clearly the main healer and SCH was the backup. Then HW happened.
