It isn't a real issue (if it's even a rule) because they can have an injured player dress and then play 0 mins if they need to.
As you note, a crap set of playable players doesn't matter if they've pulled the plug.
But if not, in having a lineup to COMPETE, they also have to navigate eligibility issues for all their 2 ways, who have limits on games in uni, even if they sit. I think both Kessler and Williams are down to about 10 games each. Kai is also unable to do the rest of the season.
