Story function, at least here. Example, Magneto get to stay because he actually is helping the heroes in several books and is by Xavier's side as an ally in the pre-X-men books, His time as a villain is indisputable and we would not allow him here if he was just a villain who was a nice guy but since we can actually see books, several, where he is on the good guys' team he is still permuted here. Also if they are false protagonist, ie, they are set-up at first to be the bad guys but upon getting to know them the heroes find they were never really enemies, such as Magus from Chrono Cross. That still doesn't make people like Albert Simon good guys. I am angling to get rid of Amanda Waller for example, she doesn't help the forces of good in the series she is just a noble villain and eventually lays down her arms against them.
