Well in a way they are needed due to console users. Adding an official parser will put both PC and Console users on the same level. For rotation you can, upto a point calculate optimal rotations by adding up the potency. Albeit when you factor in gear optimisation then it changes. Thing is players that underperform have the conseption they are doing fine as they basically get carried through content. A parser would give absolute proof they aren't.

Also with an official parser, due to discrepencies between the unofficial ones it would be nice to have an accurate comparison.
