By keeping school schedules, and thus more game assignments for you, especially if you're not a member of another assigning board.
You're right, it's not a great idea, but in the "dog eat dog world" of two competing assigning boards in the same locality, anything goes when it comes to making one assigning board look more attractive to coaches/athletic directors/principals/league directors than the other assigning board.
And maybe, depending on the state guidelines and contracted fees, it's easier to "tinker" with scrimmage fees than it is to "tinker" with actual game fees.

In the specific case of this thread, the "Brand X" assigning board already came up with a cost saving measure of lower total game fees by agreeing to go with two person crews.
Some schools may find this cost saving idea of "quantity over quality" financially attractive and thus, a real bargain.
Others may not.
