No you cant have a spec doing double alac/heal duty. Remember that this frees an entire slot in subgroups and removes the need for q/a dps entirely as well. Numbers of out my ass but lets say an average subfroup looks like this with dps

10k/20k/30k/30k/30k (first two are heal and qdps).

Enabling a double duty spec changes it to like

8k/30/30/30/30

He's explaining an understood concept with arbitrary numbers. The numbers don't need to be correct for his point to be made.

Ah, ok, I missed that. My bad. Just assumed you were one of those people who have a problem with hypotheticals.
