They are six elder masters. As an owner of a school why couldn't I call up any of these guys and say, "How about doing a festival at my school."?
I think all of this in fighting can only be bad for everyone.
Same reason when McDonalds sells a franchise, the buyer requires no more McDonalds' within X miles or whatever (depending on the population). The wider range, the more they pay to get it. No competition for the same product in the same geographic area.
And, why associate with a master, why not GMS himself? Same reason GM doesn't sell its own cars. He can't be everywhere, doing it all. It just got too big. There has to be a hierarchy and delegation of authority, and that equals a chain of command, starting at the bottom but also necessitates some free acting without knowledge/control at the top. Fact of llife.
And, why do you think he left Lexington in the first place? Didn't it have something to do with, "Here, you handle this 'business,' I'll teach when I can, but otherwise take care of it, its yours, I've got other things I want to do, not run a
business. GG is doing it, GM, DS/SS, etc. Why not you?"
