Yup. Even if you don't attend a lot of raids, the reality is a lot of items don't cost a lot of DKP. If you are just a casual player going for something like a Child's Tear, you will have an easier time getting it in a big DKP guild, especially since they kill more targets (more opportunities to get DKP that fit into your schedule). I have seen that item go for like 1 DKP lol. It's practically free.

In a casual guild you will be getting less targets (less raids that fit into your schedule), and less chance of getting the item you want in any single raid due to the RNG of /random. The only benefit to being in a random guild is if there is a server event that removes competition, your guild somehow kills a higher end target, and you win an item that is worth a lot of DKP.

This doesn't really happen though, since the high DKP value items tend to drop off of mobs that smaller guilds can't handle anyway, so they won't be able to kill it during a server event.

Server events where multiple guilds team up to kill Vulak and /random the loot doesn't count, since that kind of event nullifies whatever reward system the guilds have.
