Yes it does. Live tracking the game data and responding to it. Much different than a simple log file.
How would a very basic click macro even be detectable for this? If someone is not AFK and not doing something that isn't humanly possible already, then there's no smoking gun to point at. Regular macros already allow people to automate pauses that can't be exactly timed with human perception, and to do actions that would normally take more clicks and/or button presses. I would argue GINA introduces more of "cheat" than a weapon swap macro; there is no in-game timer for when mezzes and such are going to end. Having a program that tracks all of it perfectly and tells you in advance is a big advantage.
And really, with the ping disparity that has been brought up, a weapon swap macro would make the playing field more fair. Poor Gloomy with his Australian ping is mad as hell, it's not his fault he was born in the Desert of Ro, and I've experienced that problem in several games myself (including this one with zone loading times; very impactful for PvP).
