It's official Parsers are illegal in FFXIV

its your method, its your theory, your the one with the thought behind it, only you have the way you think it works, and its you that needs to prove it, this isnt my first mmo as well not for the half the people here.

elitism will never go away, its in every game, its always there, it cant be eliminated, no matter what is used as the material, even full on policing wont eliminate it, its a player base issue, and will always be, what your asking for is dictatorship.

its your method, its your theory,

I'm not the one defending parsers and number crunching so please do enlighten me. Show me the math and show me the numbers that prove that I am just speculating.

theorycrafters know this and strive seek answers, even if the differences are miniscule.

For the most part you answered your own question and proved why this parser thing is getting blown way out of proportion.

I've already said that it's a decent tool but it seems I have to continue pointing out the part where those obsessing and being overly reliant on it are not doing themselves and said tools a favor.

This isn't aimed at parser programs in general, but the differences aren't always miniscule. One instance where this is blatantly apparent is DRG optimal rotations, where one rotation can be worth hundreds of damage more than another dependent upon the point at which the enemy stops taking all damage (dies).
