Am I the only one thinking its directly stupid to find a hero for hire with less abilities than what his current starting level would allow

Take Joffery for example, a level 3 Altarian hero standing in the middle of nowhere waiting for someone to come pick him up and pay him a wager, but he IS a level 3 hero with only 2 abilites, leaving him a little unwanted, by me anyways.
I think its such a shame...
