"Or more so, why is Celestia it's guardian? I get the sense Luna would be a better and more effective ruler going solo if she did."

They rule over Equestria equally; any credit (or blame) for the condition of Equestria deserves to be spread equally, at least, I think (one could argue that different duties mean different portions to each of them, but that would involve a lot of speculation, which frankly, I'm not all that interested in).

And maybe it's just me, but Luna seems rash and impulsive to Celestia's calm and analytical, the latter traits which I think make a better ruler in a politically stable country (which I have little doubt Equestria is; or at least, that's how it's presented); I mean, granted, she could probably stand to show a little more emotion, but there was that time when she was (or seemed) genuinely angry with Twilight in Lesson Zero; understandable, of course. If Equestria was in turmoil politically, then I'd agree that Luna would probably be the better choice politically (more willing to make quick decisions, I guess). But I think the best of both worlds is them ruling together, each balancing the other. Day and night. Yin and yang.
