Not at all. In WoW, you could literally type "/join bleh" and you would join a chat channel named "bleh." Anyone else who happened to type the same command would also be able to communicate with you, regardless of distance. The best part, though, was that it was not tied to the guild or party/raid systems. Need to carry on a private three-person conversation? Create a new chat channel. Your LS, your party, even the people around you can no longer eavesdrop, and it works with anyone on the same server.

To do the same thing within XIV, you'd have to go create a new LS just to hand it to two other people. Then you'd probably have to shatter it afterwards. And if all eight of your LS slots are taken. . .
