We don't. They're a huge waste of resources and give users the wrong impression about what social media actually is. This isn't supposed to be a redistributionist scheme. Steemit isn't supposed to be a UBI.
That's an extreme reaction. There's nothing wrong with the idea of delegated curation; indeed it will be legitimized in Hardfork 17. Of course, like everything else, there'll be bad ones and good ones, while most will fit shades of grey. A redistributionist scheme is more debatable than a guild that seeks out content that adds value to and engages the Steemit community.
Streemian has a pretty good system set up. I'm looking forward to an open Guild which will act more as a content discovery platform. Vote on posts you like from the submissions, or not. That doesn't even need a delegation, in fact.
Prozac for everyone.
You know, I hope, I haven't been for the guilds or any of the other Group voting schemes from the beginning.
Why do we need guilds?

@ats-david was being sarcastic :)
