well, that could be, but there is strength in numbers and attrition deaths occur, skills are lost, and then needed. they have to have a certain number of people to watch a large area, fenced in or not, do maintenance of security stuff and basic chores, at the least. every other group that’s been around has benefitted from new people, teaching stuff to others, etc. it doesn’t stop the fact that groups will attack other groups, some will win and some will lose, but the more people you have the better chances you have at surviving, even if you lose.
Certainly a good thought......but we're what, two years into the zombie apocalypse now? I suspect they are fully adapted to their own environment as evidenced by the defense system they had in place along the roof tops and the outside fence perimeter. Their only thought now is the defense of what they have and to insure a constant flow of FOOD>
I think you missed the fact that during the chase scene thru the compound, there were cries for help coming from the shipping crates along the route........
Just what do you suppose THOSE folks were there for? Certainly not maintenance, security or common chores...............
