[CQ-Contest] Cheer-leading for your own club

I know of several contest clubs where they encourage their members to 
spot each other when they find a fellow member "running."

What's wrong with that?  Note, you CAN and MAY shut off incoming spots 
from a DX cluster but still spot others.

This is obviously nothing more than cheerleading and in my opinion totally unnecessary and frankly unfair.   What's wrong with those who are doing the spotting are they oblivious or just plain stupid?
