If you're a Cleric with enough class levels, then you have the spells. Its not like you have to do anything to get the spells, you get them all automatically. You dont even have to give up spell slots for them, you get them auto-slotted. And if you're healing yourself, then you have Positive gear. You can heal, you just choose not to

There's zero reason a battle cleric couldnt still heal a party in anything outside high-end endgame raids and R10. It doesnt require anything they dont have. Its just a question of doing more than mashing your deeps buttons.
For some maybe, for me I do try to heal but just don't have great reactions & have trouble keeping track of more then a couple of party members so frontline AoEs are a lot easier as I can fit them into a rotation & rely on muscle memory. As it is, I make a decent enough backup healer most of the time, in great part because of there being less pressure than as the main one.
