Because someone thought it was a good idea.
Keep in mind that this line of thought also brought us the airplane, the Internet, and chocolate chip cookies (though in that case it was more "hey, this mistake turned out to be a good idea, let's keep doing it"), so I never knock it too hard. The problem is never the idea. It's the execution of it, is where everyone fouls up.
As it stands, I'm sure there is a way to make a Warriors/SPC crossover work. But it would take a long time to think of one and an investment of even more time to make it work well. And that is the problem with most fanwriters; they never spend the time to give their work a once-over or even a twice-over.
I've had my second PPC mission plus interlude done for almost a week, but until I can find someone to beta it for me I'm not releasing jack diddly. Anything worth doing is worth doing well, and worth having others make sure you're doing it well.
