Ooo I'm so glad you're trying to throw out the "logic" argument. Ok, so according to your argument, if sbmm was introduced, then all players of all skill levels will have equal difficulty in going to the lighthouse. This is technically correct, and I concede this point. You further used college, high school, etc teams as an example of the work that is put in, which is good because I was going to use the same example. So let me ask you this...why don't we award the 13 year old who won his local swim meet with an Olympic gold medal just because he had the same amount of difficulty as Michael Phelps in winning his race? The answer is because they are not in the same skill category, so the rewards should not be equal across the board. Now let's apply this to destiny. The rewards of the lighthouse do not depend on your skill level, meaning they are fixed. Since they are completely fixed, we cannot separate the community into different skill categories with rewards fitting their skill level. Therefore, the only option is to have everyone in Destiny, from all skill levels, compete for these supposedly prestigious rewards. Essentially what you're advocating for is a participation trophy for the kids who didn't ultimately make the cut. A kid who has very little athletic ability shouldn't be rewarded with a Heisman Trophy because "he tried just as hard" as the top high school athlete in the country. The hard truth is not everyone is equal in everything, and shouldn't be rewarded as such. Unfortunately that seems to be where the world is headed, but it is wrong nevertheless. So how's that logic workin out for ya?
