I agree. But do wolves have the right to have that around? imo they don't. they signed up for a game assuming all players are active. the setup is balanced assuming all players are active. having non-players fill those slots disrupts that in two ways: it obfuscates all info on those slots to town, where info would normally be generated via discussion or gameplay, and it creates reeds for wolves to hide in by intentionally joining the ranks of the inactives, where normally those don't exist.

Removing said players restores the balance to an extent, and avoids compounding the problem. It's not a perfect balance, but it's the best you can get if replacements aren't available
