Because you have a chance to get the 4* girl any time for as long as the game is running...but the 5* event girls are here now, gone in two weeks, and won't return until much, much later*. It's not what any particular girl can do for you, this is a collection game and with the difficulty of the game we've seen so far the utility of each of them is largely a secondary concern.

Plus, you aren't really giving up too much about that 4* girl to get the 5* girl, so why not get them both?

(*Eventual return is still unconfirmed for Nutaku version)

An increase in 5% performance will not allow you to progress from a 50 stam map to an 80 stam map. If you were struggling on the 50, then you may as well give up on clearing the 80 with just slight improvements. It's better to just grind out the story maps and build up your team efficiently and forego the current event, and possibly even the event after that.

What's the point of scraping and struggling to get a 1 slot/skill 1 5★ when a fully evolved, 100% affection, 2 slot/2 skill 4★ would be far better? This is the mindset of people thinking somehow that certain units are better on a moonshot pull or a lame event reward, when they have potential money winners already in their inventory or within their grasp. Again, many of you are overvaluing 5★ and 6★ girls, citing statistics, and ignoring the myriads of variables that make it impossible for the normal player to obtain. Nutaku feeds into this narrative, actively encouraging this kind of rhetoric, as it encourages whales and people spending real money.

The fact of the matter is that the game (most games) can be played for free and without the need for all of these high level girls. The one exception I've encountered is in the realm of ranking and PvP (games like Valkyrie Crusade, School Girl Strikers, Rage of Bahamut, etc.), where having all the best of the best, minute differences in power and performance, all of this can change the rewards you earn. Games like FKG, however, are simply and purely single player focused, and are casual in nature.

You can beat the game without killing yourself over obtaining all the 5★ and 6★ girls. If you can get them with some luck on the available pulls, then more power to you. But people need to get out of the mindset that the only way you can clear events and have fun is through having 4 teams of rainbow girls.
I don't get your point, it's not hard to get an event girl and level your silvers at the same time. I've only been playing since Star Lily and I have 6 evolved silvers, 3 evolved golds, 3 golds ready to evolve with perfect Star Lily, perfect Lech and 18 medal Geranium, and I'm pretty sure I'm on the slower side since I wasn't farming efficiently for half that time. I guess I got lucky starting with 2 collection event in a row before having to do a medal event, but a medal event requires even less work since your limits are clearly defined, there's no "scraping and struggling" involved.

In the first place nobody is saying anything about silvers being trash, the guy was just saying the gold loss from using a few manyus at a time is negligible. I agree that silvers are super great workhorses but there's no reason to not participate in an event that gives out a free 5* which just have plain better stats, skill proc rates, and passives. I would argue why you would have an evolved 100% affection silver when you can have an evolved 100% affection gold?
