I could be mistaken, but I believe RAWR is calculative as opposed to simulative. There's a substantial difference between that approach and say Simulationcraft. In most cases, the results are going to be similar, however, in certain cases simulation is going to show you things that calculation just can't.

I think this article is focusing more on using any type of thing to calculate DPS, but the difference is important and worth noting.
