Ranged DPS had much more support to justify the taxes on the low DPS which is not the case in SHB where ranged have Samba/Tactician but the Casters Addle is the same, if not better. As you said so well, it's not all about Raid DPS, it's also about mitigation and refreshing other's resources
you forgot the 2% crit bard gave passively to the group, which is exactly why it's not on par, personal is not raid dps, and mch lost hypercharge, bard lost the 2% crit aswell aswell foe's and personal dps basically didn't move an inch. and yes, refresh and palisade obviously ,may have justified somewhat weaker dps but yes, both are gone
