What do you mean? I'm not sure I follow you. Hardcore guilds that desire standard competition have proven they have their own incentive under the normal competitive model. The real issue is monopolization that precludes casuals. It is not an issue of incentive for casual guilds; it is an issue of accessibility. Having normal server hours remain the same with restricted repops will provide a fair playing field of accessibility for casuals who will no doubt greatly enjoy the pressure-free raiding environment it affords them.
I think competition should be tiered. Bag limits like you and I suggest will accomplish this and repops will help even more.

Once a guild starts acquiring more raid loot and have practice raiding competition more in line with their own abilities, they'll grow and be able to compete for higher teired raid targets.

I'm sure <Freeport Community College> would not like to "compete" against a stacked opponent like <Inglorious Basterds> on Sev.

Edit: The reason most don't want to "compete" is because of the possibility of wasting hundreds of man hours per week for the gain of absolutely nothing. That is how p99 raiding is set up and no one can change that but the staff.
