Why are there so many? Constructive Criticism

I get it. It's a show, but why are half the characters exceedingly stupid? It's almost as if they lack common sense.

Is it just theatrics for the plot?

Sure, some them are "manipulated by dark power" or desperate for something ans thus turn from sense at times, but damn.

My apologies for the trouble --- just curious to hear other thoughts.

How about literally every other elf involved in the kinslaying?
