If you're basing it on dummy parses, it's not fair, because while NIN and DRGs DPS is really high on a short parse, it will slowly go down throughout the fight, MNKs is fairly low early in the fight and then increase and stay high throughout it. So in a long fight, MNK will come out on top, which is what matters, because raid fights are long.

But like have been said, it comes down to skill
Monk's damage advantage is debatable.
They aren't actually top on anything on DnT's leaderboard and Lucrezia's recent T10 speedrun had the Ninja outdamaging the Monk by a fair bit.
