    Sadly parsers are most of the time using as epeen/elitist meter than anything. Usually the rotations arent THAT hard that need a program to say to you "hey wrong rotation, last one was better " you can just use a dummy and practice, and fflogs high percentiles are bloated with those epeen meters by inflating their job focusing every possible buff of the raid on them to increase "muh dps". Even if overall fflogs give a general image of each job potential, some of their parses are heavily tampered favouring of the focused job in detriment of the rest

    Even on WoW top raiders started to stop using those meters because players stopped caring about mechanics to not lose dps forcing the healers to go on overload healing damage that shouldnt be happening on the first place and covering for their intentional messes

    So basically previous experiences show that they are more of a hassle than a help, and unless someone is really slacking off (sometimes really easy to spot when they have super low aggro despite not using their aggro tools), if people start using the "low dps meter" card to kick people they are free to report their asses.

    Usually a single person is not a cause for a enrage unless its really slacking or not having low ilv. One is fixed by paying a minimun of atention during the fight and the other by using party finder and putting minimum ilv to join as a security blanket

    The old "is X person fault we enraged" is quite rare and more like " almost half of the raid or more didnt use their damage tools properly" or "people kept dieing for not doing mechanics properly and our damage went to the garbage bin"
