your fellow player gave a post that discounts what your friends told you. here is some more math. most fights in coil hit their enrage timer ~11(avg) min.
(11 min the time of t8) 660s/2.39gcd = 276.1 actions at that ss cap
(11 min the time of t8) 660s/2.5gcd = 264 actions at 0 SS
12 at the ss cap. which is 8 total chain builders, so in 11min you get 12 extra actions in. It takes ~8 actions to build up a full set of stacks. so you only get 1 more inner beast in that whole 11min. Plug things you want into a calculator with no limits and of course its going to tell you SS out weighs everything.

You are loosing way more damage mitigation lowering your parry then, you are even remotely gaining in IB. essentially you can 20 extra seconds of damage mitigation in the last 10 seconds of an 11 min fight. you wont see any benefit until after 10min. and this is assuming 100% uptime so any fight where you have down time longer then 2.4s you will loose your advantage. So garuda, titan, ifrit, levi, moogle, t6(depends on who takes slug), t7 voice/shout, t8 mechanics... oh so no current endgame fight in the game. maybe t8
You won't even see a DPS increase until after 2min 11.5s (660/12= 55x2.39s =131.5 sec)

simple math.
