Boom now i have a parse that includes downtime. There is no need to agrue over who is parsing correct and who is not. Just simply know whether the person you compare with is using downtime or not and adjust so you cam compare correct numbers. There is only one wrong way to parse, and thats not parsing at all.
That is one way to see it, but only works if you know the exact downtime to the seconds.

Deaths is also a downtime to factor in, if any.

But I can agree that parses should be compared with the same conditions.
