Like I said, I picked random numbers .. not 100% random.. but based on what Pixelshader's guide mentioned which is the following:
""Accuracy to 475 -> Item Quality -> Item Level -> Defense (If armor)/DPS (If weapon) -> VIT -> STR -> Resistance -> (Determination = Parry) -> Skill Speed -> Crit"

As you can see STR is between VIT and Parry .. So I put it in between.. but the STR's weight I picked is still very close to Parry's weight.
What I am looking for from the forums is the better stats weights.. not my random numbers.

And PixelShader's BiS list.. also based on that
"Accuracy to 475 -> Item Quality -> Item Level -> Defense (If armor)/DPS (If weapon) -> VIT -> STR -> Resistance -> (Determination = Parry) -> Skill Speed -> Crit"

I am quoting again .. his aim was to find the "best in slot (set) if you are focusing on maximizing parry while still satisfying the 475 accuracy requirement"
Tho my solver would help to make Gear Set for any accuracy requirements [or none].

If you wonder why STR is placed this high, my assumptionis probably because the higher the STR .. the more threat you generate when you hit a target.
But I think it is true.. it's like when you have a fresh 50.. using AF1 gear.. running a dungeon with (for example) a full i90 DRG .. the poor PLD will have trouble keeping threat on himself.

Thanks!
