There's plenty of functionality with a group structure for having group levels without additional "technical abilities".

The main group page is sorted initially based on level. Further, group leaders can name group levels, so "extra" levels allow leaders of larger groups better options for splitting their membership as needed.

Further, responsibility is attributed by the group leaders and doesn't have to reliant on additional "technical" abilities within a group. Group leaders could use a 2nd level with no ability changes to consider one group "Senior" and the other "Junior", possibly demonstrating either the length of time those people at that level were members, or demonstrating a superior level of helpfulness within the organization at that level.

Also, by adding the "extra" levels when we created group items, we have been able to fill in some technical abilities to empty group levels as new additions are made to the system. Since we don't know what future changes will come to groups, it is better to have the existing expandability with empty levels already built into existing group structures.

In short, there are ways and purposes to use the functionality there- there is no reason to "remove" levels from the working system because you don't personally have a purpose for them.

Best wishes,
