It’s absurd, and has been forever. On a similar note I tried using Holdo one time on auto, she cleansed someone who did not need cleansing and healed someone who did not need healing, for the same reason. I have given up they will fix this. If it was a rebel, or someone who is in demand maybe, but they ignore the real issues their hardcore fans have.
Thrawn also has a bug with Nihilus, he makes an Empire team waste their entire first turn due to his unique zeta. How could anyone possibly defend that? Meanwhile there are uncleansable debuffs in this game that a dispeller will NOT try to dispel. Meaning they could fix it, the mechanics are there.
