there are no options anymore
Before loot options were introduced, there was no options: only timed-sanctioned-ffa
Now there are true options.
Your statement implies that there were options before, but there werent.
your logical fallacy

as time goes on more and more people will realize they are spending effort playing a harder game for no reason, no advantage, and often less loot then those who choose to not compete.
you enjoy it, you play it. you don't enjoy it, you don't play it.
its not rocket science, it's very easy and simple.

So again it simply comes down to the fact that you want to play with people that have slower connections, slower reaction times, or in general don't care for the loot competition. If you have to compete against players that are fast and competent you want no part of it. This is EXACTLY why people support PA as an option. People who want the competition can enjoy HEALTHY competition rather than just preying on noobies, squishies, and people with poor latency. Meanwhile, people that want to relax and have a good time smashing monsters with friends can do so without being forced into 'loot competition'.
Exactly.

The bottom line for me is that it takes me WAY too long to analyze the drops so I pick up nothing when I am grouped.
You can't be serious. They are color-coded for your convenience; you just click on the orange, yellow, and gold text. It's not rocket science.
When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

However getting it through your head that people don't want to play the loot competition mini-game because it is not fun and adds nothing to their game play experience apparently is rocket science... (or something else that you fail miserably at)

I don't think it's right to have a carebear, everyone automatically cooperates option. That's dumbing down the game's soul for the sake of appeasement, which is the storyline equivalent of QQ concession.
Does that make me a hater? Probably, but irrelevant. I don't care two shits about playing Standard myself, yet I'm strongly against removing or reducing the death penalty there. Does that make me a crazy hater? No. It makes me a sane hater, because the game should not have a goddamn easy button.
Right on man!
The "everyone automatically cooperates option" is the real issue with PA for me. I like to play cooperatively and work with people but I resent being artificially restricted - people I know are like "we don’t want to fight over loot so let’s set it to perm allocation" - I do not want to fight over loot either, but now I don’t have a choice if I want to play with them.
I used to feel like I had something to offer people with my loyalty, now they can force it on anyone.

So you like to play cooperatively but don't want to be 'forced' to. You essentially want to pick and choose when you play cooperatively... you are fine with not fighting over loot until something good drops is what that sounds like.
So if you don't want to fight over loot, and your friends don't want to fight over loot then what is the problem? You want to be able to pick and choose when you fight over loot? Like an alchemy is not worth fighting over, but a mirror drops and now you want to be able to fight for it.
