You actually can because all competitive raiders in this game cheat and use addons that are way more extreme than what is allowed in WoW. They just don't stream it because they'd get banned for breaking ToS.

Any team that streams in a race to world first is non-competitive because there are tons of cheaters who don't stream their participation in the race to world first and there is no anti-cheat in place to detect whether they are legitimate or not. So they get away with it. Why would anyone bother competing in a race to world first just to stream themselves losing to cheaters? If you're going to race, you know what it takes to win and in this game, that means cheating.

Sure, your opinion is great, but it's just that. An opinion. The community and square enix themselves recognize the results of people who cheat because they have no way of knowing whether they cheated or not.

If this game had an anti-cheat, you couldn't compare the raiding between the two games. But that's beside the point entirely. They are two different games, but WoW has a thriving end game community on stream platforms because it is not based on cheaters.
