I the case of "To have RPC's or not" is a matter of individual tastes.

The makers of the game put recrutable RPC's, IMO to make the game more enjoyable for a wide variety of players. I'm sure most if not all of you used RPC's the first few times through the game, if for nothing more than to see what their reactions were to game events or locations.

Those of us who have played through the game umpteen times have refined our game playing to build the best or most powerful party. This is the main reason IMO why players choose not to have RPC's. This also explains why so many of us have played the game with less than 6 characters. The solo game being the ultimate in character development (no one to share experience with).

In conclusion i would say, play the game the way you want to play it as long as it's enjoyable.
