An official SE branded parser? No, Probably not. Will there be tools available that allow for ingame parsers? Far more likely.

The game is meant to be inclusive, not exclusive.
Again, you're arguing a social problem, not with any mechanics of the game. There are plenty of things in game like "Duty Completed" that fosters an exclusive attitude, and "Bonus shaming" as a form of toxicity. Even the most casual of raiders who mostly PuG raids experiences this at some point, and condones it by staying silent - the same kind of thing that you would fear happen if parsers were allowed in any official capacity.

They want us to keep our performance to ourselves, or tight-knit static groups at most (possibly because then it is impossible to control). Other than that, it is not nor will never be OK to shun, kick from party or badmouth fellow players for reasons of performance.
Well it is a multiplayer game - you can't keep performance to yourself in any group. Sometimes it's super evident when you're not performing (bard crit buff for example), and you can't keep that to yourself. Also again, you can be kicked for "play style differences" - players are wholly within their right to do that.

Based on all official responses given to this parser subject, that is tantamount to harassment.
Everyone is so quick to self-victimize and cry harassment these days. Call me cynical to not buy into their victimhood at face value.

Again, SE won't ever, EVER, EVER endorse this thought process (by providing an in-game tool to be used for that purpose).
If SE ever does stay true to their word and gives the tools for people to create addons, they will.

This entire discussion is pointless and will ammount to absolutely nothing. As all others that came before.
Most discussions on this board are pointless - but you're not here for a discussion, you're here to repeat your diatribe and shout over people's heads. That is truly pointless.
