I guess my bigger points though are just that...
  1. if we're putting that 'token' down, it probably shouldn't just be this weird one-off thing for healers, but instead a smoothly integrated gamewide feature, and

  2. it should consider whatever other ways may exist of improving apparent access despite increased offensive kit depth (even if that's just something targeting perception, like "Glare spam isn't really that big a loss, anyways, actually...") and the actual percentage gaps between performance by other means, too (e.g., game-wide under-mechanics like partial DoT duration roll-over so that the occasional early or slightly late refresh isn't such a bad thing).
Another huge positive that this system could have if implemented would be the ability to share your gambits publicly or with friends, perhaps uploading them to a new menu where you can "download" upvoted gambits. Skilled players could upload "perfect" rotations to use on Stone, Sky, Sea which could be used as a training device where someone can use it to practice performing that rotation manually. As we've said, nuance certainly makes manual play better suited to adjust to various situations in real combat, but sometimes the hardest part of picking up a new job is learning where to start and figuring out what value your different actions have for your rotation.
