IMHO if you're not on the cutting edge of content, it doesn't matter.

Hell I've used rotational macros and still been near the top of the aggro (wink wink) in 8 mans / 24 mans.

In casual content it doesn't matter at all other than some elitist perception you have to have 100% uptime on GCDs and I'm not ashamed to say that. Sometimes if the boss is just a massive HP sponge, pushing a macro seems to be equal measures. If CBU3 can't design good encounters why should I put forth extra effort? If my team mates are slacking hard and we're still killing bosses, why should I put forth more effort?

Some days you just don't give a d@mn

Crafters use macros and no one shames them (they're commended) because they result in a win (craft HQ'd), why is there a stigma on DoW/DoM using macros to kill bosses?
