...The point really is that if you AoE 5 monsters and are able to kill them all then why do you not deserve the SP for all 5? If they were low ranked monsters and you AoE'd them you would get crappy SP/Exp anyways so you can't really grind off of it, however if they are tougher monsters, why should you get less SP/Exp for achieving that feat?
