To be fair, this is not exclusive to healers even though a healer will experience it more consistently. It is because the other healer almost surely cannot keep 9 people alive, so you would be blamed for the wipe. But tanks can also be blamed for a wipe in any group size. DPS are blamed less often but their death is still a 10% loss of your group’s power.
I’m only fresh back to the game, what’s with the different “brackets” what are the pros/cons of taking more/less people?
I try to avoid 2/2/6 groups because each individual person’s bad performance is more detrimental to the raid than if the raid were bigger.

I avoid 2/2/6 not only because each person impacts the outcome of an encounter more, but also because less loot drops. 2/3/9 isn’t much better but its what most groups seem to be rolling these days.
Big brain play is to avoid any group that has a magic ratio they’re trying to hit. It’s like min maxing your bbq based on which way the breeze is blowing. In more WoW terms, it’s like obsessing about a theoretical difference in dps for racials if you buy enchants.
10/10/10 is God meta tho
I dont understand what you’re refering to.
2/2/6 comp has seemed iffy since they got rid of 10 man raiding.
Some fights it makes it a joke if everyone is somewhat decent.
But there’s just a lot of fights where it’s not feasible without the healers being like 98th percentile, because the game is designed expecting like 4 healers or so to deal with raidwide bursts.
Idk about the current tier, but just, in general.
The main thing is that you have about 1 healer per 4 people. The healers shouldn’t be stretched too thin which is why groups don’t run like 2/1/18 (unless the healer is an actual angel). But having way more healers than that wastes time, makes all the healers overheal a bunch, and you usually don’t get enough dps to kill the boss. So like 2/6/3 for example, it’s just too many healers.
You know this though, just replying to you because your post is relevant. If the group is 2/3/10 that’s probably absolutely fine which seems to be the point of your post.
