The alternative is just to raid, parse, keep track of results, and opine based on that data which are typically better combinations.
What you are providing is basically an engine dyno before it’s bolted into a chassis. It’s the least functional way to measure real power as there are no drain factors (AC, defensive skills, level range). Those drain factors result in how fast the car ends up being (actual dps).
TBH, I don’t know why we are talking about monks for pages and pages. I don’t even do this when I beat them on a parse…

We are talking about weapon DPS, which is what OP asked about. OP wanted to know which weapons are better for their scenario. The damage formula works the same for all melee classes, different classes just have different skill caps and weapon options. You can use data from other melee classes as long as you adjust for skill values accordingly. I haven't been "talking about Monks for pages and pages" at all. I am talking about weapon DPS and the damage formula.
Most people don't have every weapon in the game to parse on every mob in the game. That's the point of a calculator. You can figure out what weapons are better without needing to have them. This helps you figure out if you want a weapon or not.
