Simpler question: Would you rather have a Phoenix heal (700 potency total, at a 100-potency tickle per tick) of forced rotational timing or 10s 10% raidwide mitigation with a minor healing bonus effect?

That seems quite reasonable. Balancing towards the jobs whose rDPS is already ahead of RDM, accounting for non-rDPS utility, seems like it could lead to power creep. Where BLM and RDM are already at is likely a better target.
