Personally, it took me far more time and effort running around foraging rare items, or farming orc pawns for a rare spawn elf

The errand-running stuff is just a multitude of low-difficulty, easily soloable tasks. Time-consuming, sure, but that's literally all it is: a timesink.

than it did to hand in a 100pp item and politely ask someone to bat phone 2 groups of players (who kindly) killed VS in like 40 seconds with me. Obviously it was even less work for whoever got the second stone for free just by showing up to help.

Most people will not be able to do that, even if they are guilded. And if they are, there's a very good chance their guild will have no idea about how to kill VS and will just throw 40 players at him, watch them all get lifetapped into oblivion, wipe, and then he despawns. Try again in 12 hours or whatever. It's a high-difficulty step in the quest when compared to the preceding steps.
CSG has that fight down to a science. They make it look easy, but to pretty much any other casual raiding guild on the server, VS is not a walk in the park. So more often than not that is the bottleneck in the quest. It wasn't for me, but it'd be myopic of me to say, "Oh, that shit was easy for me, so that must mean it's easy for everyone!"
