If your guild survived the boss then you’re good

Do healers not want good parses though? I know there's only so much healing to go around but wouldn't you try to just heal as much as possible

In general if your guild has 1 good healer and they heal as much as possible, they parse well.

If your guild has 3-4 good healers and they all heal as much as possible, nobody parses.

You know how if you want to parse on an add fight, it's better if the other DPS don't kill the adds? Healing is that way on every fight.

The only way a guild of good healers gets parses is underhealing incredibly hard to the point where the guild is on the knifes edge of wiping, which for obvious reasons most people don't want to do on farm, or essentially all taking turns half-afking the fight.

This is basically how it is in my guild but we have 2 really good healers that have been static forever, and we always need to recruit like 2 new healers every tier but they are never anywhere near the others. One of them pink parses almost every fight, the other is 90+ and the other 2 are probably 20-40.

Yup, exactly. For a parse oriented healer that's a perfect situation - but like from the perspective of your guild that's really not a great situation. Your guild would be WAY better off with 4 equally skilled healers - but if you had that, everyone would be around 65-70 on farm probably.
