Mostly the reason variance got put in is because there was more than the 2 guilds finally competing for raid targets way back when and a few select individuals threw hissy fits aka the dawn of the first rule lawyers to get this enacted so they could benefit themselves/guild and horde loot for their RMT transactions.
Variance never helped anything other than the pockets of a few individuals which i am assuming still remains the case otherwise with this much of the populace speaking out it would indeed be removed to cater to the CLASSIC experience. Not to mention improve the overall enjoyment of the majority actually playing the game.
It is just getting ridiculous how contradictory the statements of the staff have been over the course of time especially within this particular issue. Nilbog needs to listen to his own intuition and close out these outside influences who want to please a select minority since after all it is HIS project and i know he leans more towards cooperation, healthy community, and CLASSIC situations in game.
