Even by that definition, "can" is still correct. They, by virtue of action (or lack thereof), give permission to use them. If people didn't essentially have permission to use them, SE would ban everyone that uses them. By not banning everyone who's posted their parse links here, they permit the use of them. If I have all my doors locked and you break in my window and I'm just sitting there watching you steal my things without doing anything, I'm permitting it to happen, even if I want you not to. So sorry, you don't even win a semantic victory.

Calling someone out on their damage isn't necessarily harassment.
And what constitutes harassment is subjective. If I was doing 200 DPS in a run and someone ranted at me for half an hour about how terrible I am, I wouldn't care because if I did care, I wouldn't have been auto-attacking only. Other people may consider "Hey, your DPS is a little low, could you do maybe try a bit harder?" to be harassment and report them. You ignored the important point, that whether or not something is objectively harassment, that doesn't mean that reports can't be put in about it and that's something SE has to deal with somehow, costing time and resources that may be better spent responding to more important matters.
