Let's say you want to have the Trio camping out with all the sad interpersonal drama, but it makes more sense to have everyone else there too, and suddenly there's less drama and more sane voices. That's when you rethink the plot.

I don't know, I hear writers say this but at the same time, it gets painfully obvious when the plot becomes less with the momentum and more with the contrivance-by-numbers-to-get-where-I-need-to-be, and characters are just there because it makes sense for them to be there, but you can tell the author would rather be writing about something else because they haven't put much thought into what those characters should logically be doing while there. (See most of the last two ASOIAF books) And I mean, DH was already over its quota with contrivance-by-numbers, but it was somewhat mitigated by the writing for the Trio's character dynamics.
