The healer downtime argument isn't even worth engaging with. It's plainly silly. Without healer DPS every decently challenging raid would be impossible to finish at minimum ilvl.

But RE: the topic at hand. I like a simpler FFXIV. The kaiten removal was only bad because it makes the job feel less impressive. They can fix that without making people's APM higher.

FFXIV is only going to get simpler and that's a good thing to most people.
