You suggest making MCH effectively a straight up loss to bring along, but the reason it needs to do more damage is because that's all it brings (and a damage reduction skill). It needs to bring enough of its own damage to make it appealing enough to take up a slot reserved for a dancer or bard.

DNC and BRD are competitive because they raise everybody else's damage instead of doing a bunch themselves. The extra damage they make people do is counted towards their personal damage.
Mch already deals more damage when accounting for the dancer and bard buffs going to their own damage though, thats what rdps means
