I'm somewhat confused about the nature of the "problem",
since I see two problems(?) mentioned here.

(a) That there are groups who consistently don't have a
regular officer of arms attached.
(b) That there are groups where the attached officer of
arms has no interest in heraldry but serves merely to file
required reports.

Hmm. "Ugly Armory I Have Known", with examples drawn
exclusively from SCA-registered armory. Yes, that has
texture, and scope....
