It's completely understandable that they get defensive.
It's not even legal to admit that you're using one, even if you're not harassing others with it. So the ToS are already way more in favor of those against parsers then those for parsers. But more difficult content relies on having some sort of feedback of your own and the raid's performance while the game itself gives none except for "congrats, you wiped on enrage".
Seeing how people don't even want that tiny bit of grey area parser using left sounds nitpicky and bitter.
They are not fun for you and others who are of the same mind - not having any sort of feedback from the game is not fun for me and others who tackle more difficult content.
Whose fun is more important?
Right now I'd say SE found a good middle-ground with slight favor for those against them.
