The problem is that it falls apart when loot limits are removed and everything becomes a free-for-all.
Uh. No. The problem is that people who need to gear up THE JOB THEY ARE ON couldn't make sure to actually get gear for a job they wanted to use due to people just rolling on whatever. That Tank Body your tank could use? Gone to the DPS who doesn't actually tank anything of value. Stories like this actually happened. The playerbase (At least on this side) does not think about the group as a whole most of the time.
