Secondly, even if there are strats, they could be a trivial problem at best thanks to shit like ice flows or shimmer.
Third, even if the fight isn't patchwerk, it will inevitably become patchwerk thanks to gear. Think blackfuse. Think Brackenspore.
If the fight is heavy movement and heavy swapping and just generally fucking with your spec, then simc won't help, no. But neither will LFR due to unrealistic timers. LFR won't kill adds as fast as your guild etc
now if you're talking about progression, thats even easier. You will be wiping on bosses that are reasonably difficulty 50-100 times. You'll know the times like the back of your hand. 37-45 seconds roughly between this phase and that phase, ok what spell does that line up with (and so on)
SimC is merely the template or the starting point. After that your dps is about your fight length and your knowledge of it.
LFR is just poisoning the well against that.
