I think this is a terribly misplaced notion. We can argue about who should have been fired when, but "if for no other reason than to make them non-issues" is the worst reason I can think of. It's like teaching your children that if they scream loud enough in sacrament meeting, it's a free trip to romp around the foyer carefree.
Don't feed the sharks.
