if you motivate people by giving them shit for not doing quality output then all you will do is make the content makers that actually produce quality slacken their shit because they have to share with every other guy who doesn't produce quality
that is what wanna be capitalists think they are doing but it doesn't really work like that when your only measurement of "quality" is who is still in the business, if you sacrifice quality for being able to undercut your competitors by outsourcing to some chinese sweatshops you tank your quality for survival in a market you yourself drove to the pits
when it comes to artisan work and guilds you need to have rewards for the ones that actually produce quality otherwise all your artisans will just migrate to a place where they don't have to share their fruits with people who just joined for participation awards
also deserving through virtue is a catch 22, if you really were virtuous you wouldn't ask, if you aren't virtuous you don't deserve it, it's a way to fool saps into doing free shit
