No you're right, I agree. Not only does it help remind us of who each HM is (especially in a series filled with so much deadwood), but it's also more aesthetically pleasing and gives the impression that there's still steam left in this series yet. Now, as far as I can tell based off of the past week, that's not the case.
But it's nice to at least give off that impression. Leaving the names/pics off the top gives off the vibe that we've stopped caring about this series. I can't blame James if that's true in his case, but still.
