Default Pros and cons of gm enforced rotation

While its on my mind, i decided to list pros and cons of a GM enforced rotation. I was originally going to post this in RNF but i'd thought that hearing some opinions from some normal people would be nice.

Pros:
-no more variance
-no more raid rule lawyering
-no more poopsocking
-no more petitionquest
-no more tracking (aka sit in the same spot for 10+hours staring at a wall)
-raid system does not require constant gm intervention to sustain itself
-much less perceived gm-favoritism toward guilds
-Everybody gets a shot to see bosses they wouldnt otherwise be able to
-much less guild bickering/drama
-raid drops much more coveted due to being harder to get
-much much less low level ultra twinks running around
-competition based on ability to kill boss, not who can load in the fastest at 4:30AM
-no unclassic, rediculous, raid rules/charters/legal documents/raid.php to have to comb through with your legal team
-is CLASSIC (this was done on some servers back in the day, this is a classic server, right?)
-no autofire third programs being abused

Cons:
-Will take significantly longer to get raid drops, meaning it will take longer to get best in slot. (4+ years of kunark so far, velious era will be here for the rest of p99's life once it gets released so this isnt really an issue)


This is just a rough draft. I think i've hit mostly all the pros and I'm having trouble coming up with cons. If anybody can think of another, please add it here.


note: i dont think this will actually change, this was proposed last year by numerous people but was ultimately ignored in favor of what we've got now. I am just fantasizing about a healthy endgame on p99.
