They could easily solve the 'sitting in a bush jacking off' problem by just having a simple comment of "we're going to look into a few other leads, scout for danger, etc, we'll meet up back at camp." Let's not pretend this is Larian trying to make narrative sense, because you can easily say "why the hell wouldn't you accept the help of a fifth person?" then. "Uh, well, you see, narratively..." this is Larian following the DOS2 playbook.
