Yes, without a parser they will do it with something else, but why make it worse by giving them another way to annoy everyone else? And remember that even if 3/4 of the party members are cool guys/gals (not the case usually, as most people that I find are just the silent and/or passive ones), you just need the other 1/4 of the party to be an a**hole to make your experience worse, preventing you from having fun. Not to mention that only a handful of players know how to properly use and read a parser.

On the other hand, a personal parser to help people improve their rotations is fine. Heck, they could even let you invite your party to the upcoming "testing/learning grounds" that they plan to implement so that you can even test it with more people there if you want.
