    Because a game is well known for its community. If the community becomes toxic because of parsers, was it worth it to add it in the first place.

    I think personal parses are fine, and for Ultimate group parsing is fine.

    But there is a thin line where parsing can be used for harassment. Which can lead to a toxic community.

    SE cracks down on harassment issues relatively well. So what else is to speak against if they remain as adamant as they are now when it comes to that?

    The community doesn't "become toxic" because of a parser. Should I give you some examples? I once had a DRG in 3.1 get angry at me, to the point of harassing me after the dungeon, because I greeded tank gloves. Ya. Over some stupid gloves because he wanted them, but didn't say a word. Tell me what parser did that? Should I talk about the fc chest stealing? I wonder what parser does that. Or maybe emote spamming the chat since that's marked under harassment? What parser's making that happen?

    Harassment already exists. Adding a parser won't increase it. Adding a parser instead lets us have info, and might actually make the toxicity DROP since some people that like to bark loudly and harass don't have numbers to back it up. If someone's screaming at a healer for not doing dps, but is last on the damage meter, we can make him shut up, but right now if we did that we'd be considered WORSE than that guy according to Square.
