The Real Problem with Parsers

[Lyrica_Ashtine]

Sources on what, exactly? That they don't want people to be jerks to each other over it?

Your claims about what Square-Enix thinks, what Square-Enix is expecting and their reasoning/stand on parsers. As you're saying "Square-Enix this and that" here and there, it's either:
1) You have sources of interviews where a representative made statements on Square-Enix's behalf
or
2) You are making statements on Square-Enix's behalf

Unless you have sources, number two would apply. And unless you're an officially appointed representative of Square-Enix, I do believe impersonating one's a breach of their ToS.
