I'm coming from WoW so I'm not sure how different it is here, but many of the dps classes in WoW had skills that altered their threat output and so tps and dps weren't always a 1:1 correlation. If these types of mechanics are present in the classes here then I wouldn't consider the enmity bar a reliable indicator of dps (e.g., if a someone doesn't use their enmity lowering skills then it might give the impression that they are out-dpsing someone who is using them). But yeah, since it's all we have I suppose it can be used as a general guide especially if you know the people you're playing with.

I'm not saying that a parser should be used as a competition for top-dps, but as a performance measurement tool that signals if improvements could be made. Similar to how tanks and healers are measured for their roles as stated above.
