But it is.

Please note the bolded word that you appear to have skipped over/ignored for convenience:

If it happens so often, why haven't I seen it as a blatant and habitually cautious overhealer?

Why isn't it commonplace in the tales from DF thread?

Because it's made up, that's why.

People get grouchy over not being healed and slowly dieing when they felt the healers had plenty of time to save them. People get grouchy over healers who literally do nothing but cure 1 spam. People even get grouchy over healers who maintain Medica II constantly when it's not needed, but this is no different to the days of seeing PLDs spam nothing but Rage of Alone, it's painful to watch and pretty much a meme.

If you lean a bit too heavily on your GCD kit but otherwise keep people alive and contribute a bit of damage, nobody will care outside of the occasional a-hat who's going find something to get mad about no matter what you do.

This is pretty much just self inflicted raid anxiety in a nutshell /shrug
