Plenty of people happily drop their box from groups and invite solo players too for their boxes slot.
It would make a lower population P99 server more maintainable. Eventually when there's nothing left happening, people will lose interest in Velious, and when this happens zones dry up entirely and groups are harder to fill or impossible to start because of crucial classes missing. That's where a 2nd box comes in.
Not some dumb 6-boxing automated mage nerd, just a melee and his trusty healer squire.

A lot of theorycrafting here.
There are many ways to view how the server will end up. Who knows?
Maybe as many raiders get tired of velious, players who did not have a chance, or new players coming to P99 will fill those spots up and start raiding?
It's hard to say how long the server will go before population drops drastically. I think if and when that happens, a new server will be on the horizon to start up.
Allowing 2-boxing might be ok on a dead server that has a dwindling population, but as long as the server thrives with a healthy population not having 2-boxing is good imo.
The only reason to allow 2-boxing would be for convenience purposes, like swapping gears or rezzing your dead alt, but I don't like when people use 2 different toons to camp stuff. I think it only hurts the spirit of the game allowing that.
I imagine the guides and Rogean feel this way too. I am happy with how they manage the server in regards to rules on 2-boxing.
