That quick instant heal will save your life.

Ranged Physical DPS are generally considered the easiest role to play due to the freedom of movement you mentioned. They deal with mechanics more easily than any other role type. As a result, their optimal damage is a fair bit lower than the other DPS roles...which honestly barely matters in the grand scheme of things. In casual content, enrage timers (a.k.a. mechanics that kill everyone if a certain amount of damage isn't dealt in a specific period of time) are rare, and when they do pop up, are designed to be able to be cleared by people who aren't very good so that everyone who plays FF14 can see the story. In hardcore content, enrage timers become a much bigger deal, but harsh, party-wiping mechanics become an even bigger deal, and the flexibility of a Dancer or Machinist or Bard is reeeeally nice to have in any team comp, cause you can't deal damage when you're dead.
