Honestly now that Physick is split between Arcanist_Physick and Scholar_Physick. I am kinda surprised they didn't make the arcanist varient based on INT. Especially with Arcanist being the original precursor to Scholar and Summoner. It would make more sense for Future scholars to practice with Physick actually being good for when they get their soul crystals.

As for summoners not supposed to heal. Look at red mage and now dancer. They have healing abilities themselves. Sure dancer's is not perfect but they still got them. and redmage is stupid strong for what it is. Why is it such a problem that the original Red healer's healing spell not be somewhat useful. especially now that we have Pheonix's AOE healing. I am more than eager for it. Then again I was the weird one that went to Eureka simply so that i could get those delicious 5 slot equipment that is now utterly useless for what i wanted it for. Rip Mind materia and my 5.5k Physicks. At least if/till they make Arcanist Physick INT based.
