I switched from DPS to healer because at least with healer, I find I have to pay attention much more. I can't just drone out. Not because content is hard, but people love giving me things to do.
It's a bit of a strawman. The "omg 111111" argument doesn't have much to do with healing, or even healers. It stems from the frustration players have that healers don't have a true DPS rotation, and that the devs are adamant about not giving them one for the exact reasons you've described.

The truth of the matter is all healers have at least five offensive skills, and the better players are and the less punishing the content, the more of their kits are wiped out of relevance. It is a true issue, but not one that's easily solved by giving healers more buttons or reverting them back to SB days.

Tar and feather mob will be after me for making these comments.
