There's literally no need for a petition for something you could already do in game.

I honestly don't know the answer to this, but don't you miss a ton of XP this way? Also the tieflings and their related quests are still dead, so you miss out on even more xp. Not that I think Minthara should magically be happy to turn on the goblins and join you, it just seems like this "neutral" path doesn't have anything to make up for the loss of xp and equipment (or even Minthara's romance scene, right?).
You miss out on a lot more than XP yeah. There's that, you can't romance her this way, you still turn off all the tiefling content (the entire point of the thread is a request to circumvent that because of all the collateral quest damage recruiting her causes with their deaths), as a result Karlach's quest breaks entirely, etc. Getting her the evil way makes it even worse and the ONLY thing you get out of the evil path is XP and the possibility of pursuing her barely functioning romance. It's downright silly.
