Except one of your arguments previously when people have asked you to join a chain pulling group was that there are too many variables and therefore it would be invalid. You literally said that.
And then now you say that your solo DPS is 100% what you would be able to do in a group.
Those statements are in complete conflict with each other and if you try to dispute that then you're definitely not arguing in good faith and have therefore become the same person you've accused others in this thread of being. So which option is true? The group having too many variables and being irrelevant or the latter comment about solo dps 100% equaling group?

Please re-read my posts, because you are simply mistaken. My previous post has been my argument.
Since I am having a conversation with like 10 people, often times my posts may be missing context if you just read them in a vaccum.
If your group is playing correctly (which has been the assumption throughout this conversation), then you will DPS the same as if you were solo, because you are not losing DPS due to other player's mistakes.
If your group is not playing correctly, the DPS data you get will be skewed. Again, you could have 1000 data sets of people playing terribly, and it wouldn't reflect the actual DPS of the class.
Comparing one single set of group data for a Mage vs. a Shaman doesn't tell you much, unless you could somehow prove both groups played similarly. This is why you test DPS in a situation without outside variables. That shows your DPS ceiling, assuming the group is working correctly. This lets you know what the average DPS difference is between the two classes.
