What's the point?

What does being in a clan let you do? What does being in an alliance let you do? Have we gotten an answer to this?

Networking -- and an easy way to organize a fireteam from a pool of people you trust to have your back (provided you don't already have an off-b.net way of doing so). Because sometimes it's better to schedule a fireteam in a discussion board rather than waiting to see who in your list happens to be online whenever you get on to play. Also, lets you display which clan you're affiliated with, if you want.

If you're looking for in-game benefits beyond that, then you may need to readjust your expectations. The whole point of a clan is having trusting allies to call on. An alliance merely extends that relationship.
