I think you missed my point (Destiny)
If bounties alone were enough to rank up in IB and get good loot, then you could just play without caring about winning or losing, just about the bounty-- which was probably what, kills? Great, more players going for individual stats instead of a team objective. Marvelous.
You are right about this. Bounties have absolutely zero place in competitive multiplayer.
There was a time when I would have agreed with you, but I feel Bungie has gotten a lot better about designing bounties that don't interfere with the natural course of play (today's frustrations being an obvious exception). Most IB bounties are now things like "get 10 precision kills" or "score a rift"... things that players are already trying to do. They're usually not as invasive as they used to be.
