Parsers in general use encourage or at least reinforce toxic behavior. Private groups that want tools to better themselves already have those options and I see no need for any wider adoption than that. Certainly not for any official in-game options.

Anyone who has been in a WoW LFR group and seen the constant, demands to "Kick every DPS under X" or "Kick the healer doing Y" know too well when open parser usage invites. Hell sometimes it's nearly impossible to just play because folks are spamming so many vote-kicks every.single.pull and I just have that many "No" buttons to click.

Even for relatively serious groups Parsers honestly do not offer much utility. Simply looking at number doesn't tell you much. Getting anything substantive requires really dedicated drilling down into the play-by-play details. Only the most dedicated and serious players have anything meaningful to gain from them. Most folks advocating for them just kind of like seeing a number because... numbers and/or bragging rights.

As far as I'm concerned an in-game parser or any general official support for them represents a very-high risk in terms of degradation o the play environment for relatively small gains. High Risk/Low Reward is not a bet I want them taking on this game.
