Totally see where you are coming from zelld.
The p99 usage of Account Sharing is built into the meta of raiding and top guilds. So this rule is essentially protecting those with access to more than one account more than the young scrub or newer player with just one character that comes across an empty corpse with a cool desirable item on it.
It's one of the ways that p99 encourages lawyerquesting. Because p99 is top heavy there are many rules setup for the folks that raid to try and minimize disputes there for CSR. This is an example of a rule that impacts the raiders to create an understanding so ninja looters don't come in and get important loot off raid mobs as DKP is being discussed, but when the same rule cascades down it can hit an unsuspecting player who wouldn't know any better. A sad situation where the ones who leverage the rule system designed to protect the top players can hurt someone who unintentionally wasn't trying to rock the boat.
I don't see this changing anytime soon as the meta for p99 is fairly well treaded at this point.
