I'm not watching an hour+ long video, but WoW's toxicity isn't only because of parsing tools. There are a lot of other factors as well, including, and I think most importantly, a GM team that isn't as strict about "no harassment" as 14's. It's really silly to pin it solely on a parsing tool when so many things contribute to the state of the community.
Yoshi has been pretty clear that its more than just harassment. He doesn't want to see ridiculous requirements in the PF like "you must have this dps number to join" especially for older content where you start to outgear it and expect people at the appropriate ilvl to match the dps of higher ilvls that completely out gear it. This was a common occurrence in other games.

The other side of things is he doesn't want to pointlessly add work onto the GM's. They have enough crap to deal with and the ticket system doesn't need to be overwhelmed by events directly caused by petty players like firemage and other like minded players.
