For one thing, it pushes Tunare's death (potentially) a full day later. Every time this happens, you've now kept everyone else waiting an extra day. For the reason of "we don't want to do this yet." PoG can't be cleared without hours of killing, so the spawn time of Tunare will always be pushed back a bit, but that's because of the basic mechanics of clearing the zone of all mobs, not because some people decided they had better things to do.
For another thing, it gives you the option of either raiding relatively soon after spawn, or having Tunare sniped by another guild. We (and other guilds) still have a decent shot at Tunare if you screw up enough times or if your guild can't or won't show up in force in what I consider a reasonable time frame.
Engaging a mob for FTE that you aren't prepared to kill seems absurd to me. The only reason I would want an agreement in the first place is because PoG is a long crawl and no one wants PoG turning into an ever worse fear.

Pushing the spawn back potentially an entire day is the price you pay for not having to clear the zone at 3am. You have to give something up in order to make the game less shitty. If the agreement purposely makes it so only Aftermath is capable of downing Tunare if she spawns late, eventually she will spawn late (or be purposely downed later to push her window later) so that Tunare is more or less an Aftermath-only target. No one but Aftermath is going to agree to that, thus no agreement, thus FFA, thus guilds threatening to contest Tunare as per FFA rules. That's maximum shitty.
I'd even be willing to lose the "no 2x in a row" clause, which gives an advantage to the number 1 guild on the server, to keep the 12 hour clause. No one wants to do Tunare at 3am.
