It's because of the "mountain of lies", whoever in the local churches has any interest in what John Ingalls had to say in "Speaking the Truth in Love", will have their "standing" in the local churches scrutinized and maybe asked to go meet somewhere else.
You have these "obsequious sycophants" taking what Witness Lee says back to their own localities and passing lies off as truth. Brothers and sisters have the mindset of not having reason to question what they're told and receive it good as gospel.
Now about this phrase "obsequious sycophants", term I've preferred to use is hirelings. They like the recognition and notoriety, but not the labor. Just setting meetings times and selling the latest and greatest from "the ministry" is the requirement they've set for themselves.
Brothers who used to labor as shepherds, they were made no longer welcome in the local churches. Leaving the toxic environment was best for their families.
