For all they know, they could be praying to “saints” who are STILL in purgatory. Praying to someone to intercede on their behalf who is no more able to approach God from purgatory than Judas himself.

Well it's a fruitless endeavor and waste of precious time they could be praying for the souls of people that are alive and in need of Salvation. BUT... What comes to mind is the verse.."let the dead bury the dead"...so I suppose some who practice praying for the dead are just that themselves.
