Last I checked, whining and complaining about it still won't improve your DPS as much as simply adapting to the situation will. Yes, there are issues when it comes to the servers, but in this one particular circumstance, this is one that players can overcome by tweaking their rotations and timing, and the reason why the "git gud" line keeps coming up is that because good players know they have the ability to adapt and adjust their gameplay rather than whine about it.

Now if you REALLY wanted to gripe about latency issues, I'd recommend checking out most Korean games, especially Blade & Soul, or the more appropriate name for it, Ping & Salt. Might be worth it since it seems like you still spend less time playing the game than griping about it.

How do you know that they're mashing buttons because of game responsiveness rather than some other factor like excitement or the controllers are worn-out and less responsive than they may have been before? Just by looking at a livestream, there's not really much way that you'd be able to know.
