Getting rid of assistance where the assister doesn't drop to the bottom of the rotation.***

Guilds should be encouraged to kill mobs on their own. If they cannot that is fine they are welcome to ally up and occupy a single rotation slot as a pair of guilds.

Can someone please explain the fixation on allied guilds? As Pint so eloquently stated:

In other words, the two scenarios of "Guild A and B ally together" and "Guild A and B raid separately" work out exactly the same. If a dragon has 10 pieces of loot (for easy math):

Scenario 1: Allies
Month 1: Guild A gets 5 items; Guild B gets 5 items
Month 2: Guild A gets 5 items; Guild B gets 5 items
End: Both guilds have 10 items


Scenario 2: Allies
Month 1: Guild A gets 10 pieces of loot
Month 2: Guild B gets 10 pieces of loot
End: Both guilds have 10 items

Serious question (not trolling): what am I missing?
