This hits close to why "everyone speaking" in a Sunday morning service is scrutinized in non-LC Christianity as it's not safe. Without formal training in the Word there is increased likelihood someone can speak errantly. Having witnessed errant speaking in LC prophesying meetings, there's no oversight to put a halt to it. Rather getting as many people to speak is encouraged even when it is off.
Unqualified with natural gifts can easily transform the speaking platform into "groupthink".
