And now you say "The fact is there are plenty of people who use parsers validate themselves by stepping on people who under-perform". Got anything to back up that claim? Or just an anecdotal again? How did you know that plenty of the users do that?

As for rescue, maybe you didn't say "only" so I'll give you that. But you did state that's what the tool does and what it is, which is clearly a false understanding of the tool that you tried to enforce based on your personal experience.
Got anything to back up your sentiment that most people use parsers correctly, or would that be anecdotal? Obviously neither of us polled the entire consumer base and we're just stating our opinions based on our experiences. This difference between you and me is that I'm secure enough to let you state your opinions without needing to try to discredit them.

I understand this community likes parsers, and I've made myself "the enemy" by taking a position against them. You people do a lot of strawmanning when you feel something you like is being threatened, though; and it's just not very effective.
