Sure, I can agree that there seems to be a good median
How about this, I usually play BG:II with a core of 4 companions with an open slot for everyone you find while adventuring, if I were to make BG:2 again today I'd just go all the way and make those companions temporary, coming in and leaving with their quest. BG:3 could treat all the non-origin companions the same way, they'll be party members along with your core 4, the scope of their writing will be more focused, hopefully leading to less of the duds you get in games with lots of companions, and they won't overstay their welcome. Just something this made me think of.
