Actually I can.

I was doing triple flare before it was a thing (even use Int pots as well when it would be more appropriate over triple flare).
I enjoyed using AM's on Demon Wall/Anataboga(?)/Ifrit/Garuda/etc and Leviathan before it was ever a thing.

If Dragoon's had Wyvern pets I would be using Str pots and would be using jumps as punishment and not as part of the rotation when there's bosses like Titan/Leviathan.

Playing the game and understanding your toolkit before diving into a rotation isn't a hard thing to grasp. Which like I said before an avg threshold will always be more import than seeking a consist max dps value. Those parsers that keep on edging "muh dps" is the double edge sword of dpsers since they become obsessed with numbers and ignore mechanics to keep their numbers high. Since it will enforced the mentality on DD players, "who cares if I died during the fight and we wiped because of me. My DPS broke a world record".
