My view is that this sort of variance is part of the class; reducing it makes it more like the other healers and reduces the distinction between AST and the other healers. The variance is 'mitigated' by balancing the class around the median result over the course of an average boss fight (and by making the difference between one and three seals relatively modest with respect to, say, clearing an average savage boss).

For people who like lower variance, I think that the best solution is to have other healers with lower variance (which FF14 obviously does). That does mean that people who specifically like AST and low variance will have to choose which they like more, but it also means that players more generally have the option of high- and low-variance healers.
