Well I didn't come up with the rule, so I can't completely say for sure and you'll have to wait for Byll to respond... but if I had to say, it's that background characters don't carry nearly the same weight as other elements that get removed. They're essentially stage-intrinsic elements that can't be interacted with and can't be described with more than a paragraph already, so the full extent of any removed background character's function can just be described in the trivia section of their respective stage page.
