I mean, it makes sense when you think from the perspective of their talents - unlike the Mane Six, whose special talents don't usually require them to work together because they're so different, while they can work together on periphery stuff, whereas the CMC's core talent involves working together most of the time, because it's the same, while on periphery stuff is when they can work apart. Basically, what I'm saying is that they spend a lot of time together, and so I feel they have a good understanding of friendship, so it makes perfect sense to have them as friendship tutors, while it makes sense for the Mane Six to be teachers of an individual aspect of friendship.

Plus, as I think Surf and/or Turf showed quite well, their talent is not only in helping to determine one's destiny, but also to help with coming-of-age crises, and a lack of skill in friendship could definitely be one of those, I think.
