It continues to feel so astoundingly stupid to ever leave anyone in camp.
There is simply no good narrative reason for it, and in turn that means there is no good reason for the game to have been designed with a party cap any smaller than "everyone you can recruit + you at once".
At this point because of how dumb it is, I don't want to play through the game with people waiting at camp anymore, at least none of the origin characters, maybe I can tolerate teammates who could easily have been non-party allies, like Halsin.

So now the question is, do I only recruit 3 of them every run, leaving whoever I don't pick unrecruited, or do I go through the effort and put up with the bugginess of combining a mod to bring everyone with me at all times and a mod that removes all but 4 people from every fight (because I don't want to turn the game into a roflstomp)?

Anyone have any thoughts on which of those is the choice more worth pursuing?
