So given that, they argue: If that is really the case, when Srila Prabhupada initiated disciples, the GM gurus were also doing it. Why???

Similarly, what if we bring in the argument: When Srila Prabhupada was physically present, why didn't they bring all their initiated disciples to Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet for siksa and follow Srila Prabhupada?
