In opposition of the inability to move waymarks in combat.

Losing battle or not isn’t the point. The game has grown quite a lot since shadowbringers, and continues to do so. The dev team had to take a stand on where the line is. They’ve made it clear.

They reiterated what we already knew: Mods and Parsers are against the ToS. Did it stop anyone? Nope. People aren't going to stop using mods, triggers or any of the things they already did. And the very program they're trying to beat is being made client side, which means they can't detect it. I'd say that was a pretty big point.

Everyone says this alternative is so easy it’s this it’s that, or this is the wrong or worse way to go about it. That’s false. The worse way they could have gone about it is to change ToS to allow for a scan of any files attached to their game (which they admitted was illegal and arent going to do) as for affecting 99.9% of the playerbase. Outside of niche situations. Nael, TEA, UCoB most waymarks are placed pre-battle and not touched again during any pull post wipe.

That's a scare tactic and little else. They will never, ever attempt anti-cheat software. Not only does it not work (Guild Wars 2 tried), if it actually did, they would lose millions because of the sheer number of people banned. There is precisely zero chance they risk destroying their raid community, which an anti-cheat program would do.

The rest of your post is nothing but a giant Strawman. I never brought up the markers but called out your insistence they drew some silly new line and that we have to play by these new rules. Those rules are exactly the same as before and people will do what they were already doing.
