I haven't seen the film, though--your review largely serves to confirm my suspicious--so perhaps your contention is simply that they are vastly disproportionately represented?
In any event, yes, the whole thing just seems so venal. And given that it's Disney, that's saying something.

They didn't tend to be about a third of a noble court, or pastors of remote towns *NM*

Why is that dangerous? My target audience was ALSO not the movie's target audience.
