If groups fail because of a lack of Tank LB3, it's because the group got lazy to do a mechanic for the second time in a fight. If groups failed Zurvan because they didn't skip, it was because nobody there knew how to do soar and actively refused to learn it. There's quite a difference.
Also maybe it's an unpopular opinion, but I don't understand why "no double jobs" isn't the standard as well an option in PF. I mean the LB penalties on high end content are there for a reason but we have to police it ourselves. I honestly don't see why it's being compared to "Skip Soar".

Soar was skipped in the first phase and then tank LB'd in the second for the express purpose of nobody having to learn the mechanic. You can't skip or Tank LB the first tiger in Byakko, so you can't avoid learning the mechanic or how it works. That's all I was trying to say.
