Some argue that bases are good as is (immortal if well done), because if mortal, they will be 100% burned. If one can burn it, one will burn it, regardless of RP.
Some argue that bases should be nerfed (mortal any ways), because if immortal, they will 100% stand where they are. One shouldn't burn it, so one couldn't burn it, regardless of RP.
Only absolutes, no middle way to favor both sides. No way to balance properly. But the real issue is the lack of RP regulations.
