This same rationale could be applied to complaints from the FRAG and Riot about timer's being spread out, couldn't it? So just don't contest every single spawn, at all hours of the day?

This is a game, after all. People make friends, and prefer not to have to leave the communities they are part of in order to experience the various content the game has to offer. Taking it so seriously that you're unwilling to share anything, ever, is part of the problem. Competition is fun, but it's only one of several ingredients that make p99 enjoyable. Serpentine draft was meant to address this point, but seal team (surely acting alone, and not at all coordinated with anyone else on blue I'm sure) probably going to see to it that it falls apart. So we're back to square zero.
No. The same logic couldn't be applied. Because you just lifted the scope of the conversation from the individual player, to an entire raiding entity.

Individual players choose when to log in or not log in.

Raiding entities have players globally, and are specifically designed to support 24/7 coverage. They will never stop contesting targets because that's not how a random dude on the forums thinks the game should be played.

It's extremely simple. "People make friends, and prefer not to have to leave the communities they are part of in order to experience the various content the game has to offer." This is the tradeoff that you have to consider. Stay with the guilds that don't care enough about raiding to have the infrastructure to win competitively because you like them or know them irl or whatever... or join the raiding entities that do care about winning, and have the infrastructure in place to do it.

That's your choice. There's no wrong answer. But the rules won't be changed so that you don't have to make the choice. Live with your decisions and stop complaining about how the system isn't fair.
