Thats why there is no parses in this game.
Again PuGs do not use parses that way. If you encounter a PuG that does, you already know enough NOT to join that group. Same goes for unrealistic ilvl requirements.

Parses are used if you apply for a static and these people know how to read them. They would see that it was week 1, they would know the gear was crap and the encounter new. No one expects 95%ile performance in such a setting.

I've never encountered a PuG in WoW that looked at my parses. They typically want proof of kill in combination with item level.

It's not an "earth and sky" difference I've played both games for many years and all you "no-parse" people are making a mountain out of an anthill.

BTW: in this glorious FF-XIV community I got kicked from a dungeon as a lv 27 AST for not using cards (cards became available at 30 at the time) and I also got kicked for doing too much DPS as a healer b/c the tank couldn't be arsed to AoE (despite me healing against the noodle mob hits w/o issue).

Go figure, idiots will be idiots. Parser or no parser.
