More than this, 'paying attention to your team' is just a nice thing to practice, for the times where you actually might need it. Sure you can go through the whole game, not giving one {flying sardine} about your team or looking at anyone's hp bars but your own as a BRD, but by practicing that attention and keeping yourself proficient at it, means that maybe you can save a wipe from happening with a timely Paean to cleanse a debuff, for example. To me, anyone who says 'I shouldn't have to pay attention to my team as a non-healer' is a detriment to their party, in any game. If you're playing Overwatch as a DPS and you give zero regard to your teammates, their positioning, their HP, only caring about yourself, you're going to get yourself and your team killed. It's selfish behavior, and in a teamplay-oriented game, it's counterproductive, it makes you more likely to 'fail' rather than 'succeed'.

Go play a MOBA or such as any non-support role, 'pay zero attention to your team', chances are you'll get rolled. Take that garbage attitude back to singleplayer games where the NPCs don't mind getting treated like servants to you, the 'real hero of the story'
