Sure, you can't see it mid fight but uh.... no one looks at that stuff mid fight. If you are looking at your parse during a fight in any game it means you aren't paying attention to the fight and there for reducing your DPS. Thus it would be used in the exact same way as a browser app would be, and said browser app would be completely immune to any 'anti-cheat' system or detection.
Ok, thanks for educating me, since I have no idea how it works, i've only seen screens of it showing as an overlay like the in-game HUD. So it's a more refined way of looking at data, the same way you would look at the in-game recordings to figure out mechanics.
Seems simple enough to understand and use if it was part of the official game like the recording function is.
But until such time, it's a third party addon, breach of tos, and as such it's considered cheating.
