Ok, so you hit enrage, that immediately tells you a few possible likelyhoods

1) Your group is undergeared
2) Your group is taking to much damage or dying to mechanics to much to have proper damage output
3) Your group DPS is to low due to people not understanding their classes.

Now, pragmatically you should be able to easily tell if youre properly geared or not. You should also easily tell if youre group is taking to much damage or dying to often. So the only real 'unknown' is your damage output, which stems from knowing your class and rotations IF the other two are not a factor.

Parsers can help you identify which members of your group are not performing as well, but the parser in of itself does not have any bearing on the fight directly or indirectly.

You can beat savage content without one. It's not as easy, but you can. You could go into any Savage tier and do the fight without any parsers running and still clear it.

So the point you should not be arguing is "We need this for savage content!" because you do not. You dont NEED a parser. You WANT a parser because its a QoL addition that will help you clear content EASIER.
