Ok, but can you admit that even in this scenario, both the Shaman and the other members of the group would each be getting better XP if the Shaman were just root rotting solo?
What you are suggesting is literally no different than a Bard joining an XP group and swarm kiting off to the side, or a Wizard doing the same while quadding. It is completely asinine as well as dishonest to suggest that anyone in the history of EQ has ever "grouped" in this manner (with the obvious exception of PLing), much less that this sort of grouping arrangement is somehow ideal. The reason it is NOT done is very obvious: the player killing mobs off to the side of the group might as well be soloing and keeping all the XP for himself rather than sharing it with three other players. Further, said player offers NOTHING of value to the group otherwise if playing in this manner, and a Shaman playing in this manner brings no utility or synergy since he is endlessly canni dancing/Torporing/DoTing and has no time to slow, heal, tank, etc...
This latest argument of yours perfectly illustrates how you endlessly shift the goalposts and dishonestly argue that the Shaman is capable of performing 10 different group roles at the same time.

Saying a valid strategy you can do in the game is "dishonest and asanine" is silly. You still haven't told me what goal post have been moved.
