That makes no sense in fiction. You can control the narrative to make any character necessary, and by that same token a person can argue that by always making your narrative not need those characters then you're leaving them out. It's not the same as irl job recruitment at all. The "merit" of a character is COMPLETELY in the control of the writer.
