I agree. At some point my active noble limit went up to 3, but by that time I was enjoying my 2 other nobles and 1 advy and didn't want to give any of them up. I shouldn't have to give up one of my chars to use the additional slot, I earned it! Yes, I could have dropped my advy and the advy game would be -1 char. I don't think the game is in danger of having too many advys. At least not the islands where I play.
