Only thing I can see use is looking at the different on jobs. Like Mch. As a selfless dps it does less damage and use then a bard or DnC. FFlogs say as much. Yes, every job can clear but then there the elitist who look at that and say don't bring one because of logs.
Now I saw a post on self damage only. That could work but it only for the instance and you can't save it unless you screen shot it.

If you re worried about taking to long then do something else. You went in to raid. It like saying CC pvp taking to long because the enemy putting up a fight.

That line is entirely smoke and mirrors. Frankly you'd have to be an utter imbecile to think that they somehow need to use addons to test content in production. They can simply use development clients to use things such as godmode, inflated damage and hp, even break fights down into a phase by phase test if needed. This was something that was clarified very specifically by Yoshida back in Gordias and other than them switching away from testing phases individually (with fresh cooldowns which was a big part of the Gordias tuning issues), nothing appears to have changed.

If you seriously think that SE's testing team was clearing DSR entirely legitimately during it's development then I don't know what to say to you tbh.
Yes but they make sure it can be beat even if they don't restart every death.
