Heal sniping isn't just neglecting your own assignment, it's making it look like the person you're sniping from is neglecting THEIRS. If I'm assigned to raid heals and that's a full time job, and the tank healer is bored enough to have time to snipe me, that means an uneducated raid leader might draw the conclusion that it's me, the raid healer that doesn't have enough to do (or isn't pulling my weight), since the raid healer has the lowest healing done. From this, you can end up with stupid tactics that will lead to more wipes. Or getting kicked from the raid for "underperforming". THAT is the real danger of sniping.
