I actually don't think it's obvious. If it's a solo fight but you bring 2 people, yeah, it becomes a lot easier. But due to various mechanics including TP-feed, skillchains, and cumulative magic resists, you reach a point where each additional person is bringing less and less to the table. At some point, bringing more people doesn't help you anymore. And at some point, bringing more people hurts you. Especially if you consider that the people being added last are often the worst geared/skilled.

The point where you consider leaving people out is often dangerously close to a 6-man PT which means you're completely hosed if you have a larger group. Splitting up is an option but it's unrealistic to expect a group to be able to divide itself down the middle to make 2 winning groups.
