Its just a terrible idea on so many levels, but since you can't get a clue:
1. What happens when you get both characters to 7 stars? You shouldn't get shard shop currency because no more redundant shards so this event ends up providing absolutely nothing to players who have both at 7 stars.
2. The economy of the game would no longer exist. Farming would no longer be a thing because of other events like Military Might, Contraband Cargo, Ground War, Forest Moon (etc.) will also provide guaranteed toons that you haven't bothered to farm
3. This isn't Galactic Bounties. That's the format where you get to choose which toon you want. You could've requested a Galactic Bounties III with NS Spirit shards in the feedback section of the forum for the devs
4. Its a very selfish request from a player who doesn't want to put the effort of farming a toon and wants a toon given for free and is not open to any other point of view
5. This event IS the developers throwing you a bone here. Its not like they gave you NS Spirit shards as the October login either. Don't bite the hand that feeds
6. Where is your data to support that you only gotten Spirit shards twice since the inception of the event? This is pretty hard to believe
