If LC elders ever wonder why their meetings constantly go over time, well it's because they try to give the floor to more people that it's logistically possible for the set amount of time.
In practice "All can prophesy" is restricted to SLM publications. Generally HWFMR or bringing a fresh word from a recent conference.

If elders ever wonder why there's a lack of increase, the model of which they employ "all can prophesy" could be part of the problem.
