You can either concede that when talking about "grouping", no one (including you!) is talking about a shaman root-rotting off on the side, or you can concede that when Crede described your position as "a shaman could put out dps similar to a 60 focused water pet mage in a group", it was accurate.

You can't have it both ways.
I can have it both ways, in fact. There is nothing in the game that stipulates you cannot root rot in a group, nor has any evidence been provided to suggest it is a problem.

I'm glad DSM can find groups that let him go off on his own and root rot stuff, but I find the whole concept pretty repulsive.
I know you personally don't like the idea of root rotting in a group, but that isn't relevant to the fact that you can root rot in a group. I was specifically talking about root rotting in a group.

Crede was not describing my position as "A Shaman could put out dps similar to a 60 focused water pet mage in a group while root rotting is their primary function in a group killing XP mobs". I am not sure why you think I have to accept his generic statement of: "A shaman could put out dps similar to a 60 focused water pet mage in a group", when it is incorrect and brings with it incorrect assumptions about what I said.

To give an example, let's say you agreed with me that root rotting is a viable method for soloing. You might say something like "I enjoy root rotting". If I simply posted that as your view on root rotting, it would exclude your opinion that root rotting in a group is bad. As you can see, your position isn't simply "I enjoy root rotting", it is "I enjoy root rotting in solo scenarios, not group scenarios".
