If Divinity is unable to, DA or IB (or anyone) could go in later and get the unkilled raid mobs. This means DA and IB could still get a raid mob a week, if not 2 or even 3.
Well, the only real negatives of patch days spawns with no variance are that people have an incentive to try bringing down the zone or the server looking for repops. I addressed that point earlier though.

The other negative is that Euro players get the first shot, then US players, then Aussies get nothing. That should be the only reason for a variance imo. Making the spawn times nearly unpredictable encourages more camping, not less... unless you make the variance so huge that the mob might not spawn for 15 days or something, and that is decidedly not classic, and also a horrible idea.
