I remember a few years ago there were "reports" that Vince wasn't at a Smackdown taping, and Triple H was in charge and he left the announcers to do it on their own, only briefly giving them instructions, and they supposedly were very positive about it because they liked not having people constantly talking in their ears.
Branding is important. WWE believes in that. Some of these guys cannot be trusted to just wing it. I actually completely understand WWE's positioning on this.

I'm not saying it's what I would do, but I get the logic and think there is merit to it.
