WHM has pretty much everything AST has ogc in shadowbringers and then some and the lilies give them what is basically extra swiftcast+0MP versions of their spells every 30s on top of that

Cards is the only thing setting ast apart atm and they are the epitome of tedium in the currently proposed version
That's exactly what I said? Cast time =/= global cooldown. While a WHM using a GCD only spends that entire GCD healing, an AST, with the 1.5s cast on Malefic, can DPS and off globally heal within the same GCD. How do you not know that?

A WHM can literally only weave by using Aero and Regen, and using an off global any other time results in clipping and is a DPS loss, AST doesn't suffer from the same problems and this will be even more apparent in SHB with them gaining even more off global healing, while WHM's new toys are all on the GCD.
