That's not the issue. The issue is that the game has only pumped out dance style fights with the same dynamo chariot left right spread stack pyretic freeze light party partners since SB where the most difficult mechanics since late SB were literally all just memorizing the raidplan on a debuff soup mech. Guess what happens when your mechanics are so stale and scripted? People might as well just use an amateur sim to get it done.
