I don't see why SC/MB is important. If SE makes it worth doing, players will do it. If SE doesn't make it worth doing, players won't do it. If you don't give a crap about whether it's worth doing or not, do it because it's fun. If it's fun, you don't really need mega super awesome bonuses for doing it - you should be doing it because it's fun.

If you're really the only person around who wants to SC/MB for fun, maybe you should find people who share more of your interests. If that means the aurore brigade can't go out and kill Kaggen, who cares? At least they'll be having fun SC'ing and MB'ing whatever they want.
