I can understand train farming if it's being done by a mage using AoEs. For them, it's more efficient to take out a bunch of little mobs with one or two -gas, then to have to kill each one with a single target spell.

However, the reason players train farm usually isn't because it's more efficient. Generally, training is an attempt to lay claim (and a dubious one at that) to multiple mobs when competition is around.

I used to farm in Giddeus for necklaces and silver beastcoins. I had been at one spot for at least an hour when a Galka PLD showed up to farm the same mobs. He saw me resting there between pops, and went away. A little while later, he came back into that area with a small train of Yagudos, attempting to train the ones near me as well. In a situation like that, yellow means fair game. Just because you get a mob to follow you, it doesn't mean you own it.
