I imagine the point is simply to make it easier to balance. That seems to be the reasoning behind 90% of the homogenisation and job design recently - which I can appreciate, they certainly make balancing gradually harder as they add more and more jobs. But I think I personally would prefer slightly worse balancing for slightly better job individuality... Every healer having a single 30s DoT, one spammable GCD and then one vaguely unique cooldown you can press only 1-3 times a minute really makes it feel like levelling the same class four times over rather than four individual classes.
The thing is the shield healers aren’t remotely balanced as it is

SCH is better than SGE in near every category and them considering soteria and recitation equivalent isn’t going to help this, nor is how much stronger seraphism is over philosophia
