I can understand the reasons given the nature of Thay. If a half blood is currently a Captain or Tribune and they decide to stay even if demoted would it be possible to give them a compsenation of sorts? Caramiriel is a captain and half elf and would accept the demotion aspect if she decides to stay.

Unfortunately outside of working for a temple, being a merchant or slaver, the various legions give people a chance to join something so I would not call it a crutch.
