Why should I take out a spreadsheet and read through the mess on my combat log if i want to know how much DPS I did in a fight, if I can have a much easier way of doing so?
As for your second statement, a lot of players enjoy optimizing because they have fun that way. High level optimization is not just a requirement for Savage either. Sometimes, you high end optimization may be what saves a group from a DPS check in an Extreme primal or any other type of DPS check in this game in order to make up for the lack of damage other players may be outputting. Some people just enjoy having higher numbers or having friendly rivalries with other players in their FC about who can push out the most DPS. I hate going to a PC player every time I want to check my numbers because it feels like I'm bothering them. I enjoy seeing my numbers and trying to find ways to constantly improve, and having access to a parser wouldn't lead me to rely on other people for this.
The thing is that there is no "on/ off button", and that's a concept that many players don't seem to take into account. Many players like to play at their best at all times because they want to help the group out to the best of their abilities. Min-maxing may seem like a chore at first, but like with all good habits, IF that is something that you would like to do, and you keep at it, it becomes second nature and requires nowhere near the effort that it did when you first started. I don't queue up for Expert Roulette and play at the minimum level required to complete the dungeon, and then queue up for AS and magically perform better. Good habits are built over time, and many players enjoy performing their best not because content requires them too, but they simply have the most fun doing so.
