but what is wrong with simply being a Christian. No more, no less.
Nothing.
Unless you are implying you can be an obedient Christian without joining a local community of believers in some fashion.
If you are stating that, you’d be way off. Aside from the fact we are commanded to come together as an assembly, take note that virtually every YOU in the letters to the churches (and almost all in Jesus’ teachings) is plural, meaning most of the promises and teaches we claim are directed at assemblies.
There is no such thing as a healthy Christian who chooses to separate themselves from other healthy Christians in the name of individualism.

Well said. Hebrews 10:25 covers that pretty succinctly:
"Do not forsake the assembling of yourselves together as the manner of some is..."
As LSU fans we tend to like to gather together on Saturdays in Death Valley as a community of like-minded people who enjoy each other's company. Why shouldn't Christians want to be together in weekly worship to the Almighty Creator with even more fervor than that? Yes, indeed. Christians most definitely ought to assemble together with regularity as the writer of Hebrews is quick to remind us.
ETA: I think you and I are pretty much on the same page with regard to this.
