ACT in base form is not a callout program, it is purely an encounter parser for damage, healing and events.

What is referred to as callout aid is most likely CactBot, which isn't the only ACT plugin one can use for such purpose.

I have been in many statics where no external help other than a comfortable way to collect damage data for performance was used, because learning a fight without one isn't as big as a challenge as some may pretend and if you need calls... well, that's what we have shotcallers for (players who call as you fight).

EDIT + NOTE: I know you didn't imply anything other than ACT usage, I just happened to quote on your post to collectively answer in the thread, sorry.
