Its not that big of a deal, and its not difficult unless you are lazy, so why bother with something so unnecessary.
Guild points were introduced when crafting/fishing was a lot more vibrant, you would be able to get base items off of the auction house because people would skill up on them. This is certainly not the case anymore. The game has aged, there are less people playing, there are less people skilling up crafts, etc. Times have changed, some things need to be adjusted as a result.
