I understand (though I don't like it!)<br/><br/>The issue I really have with it is that bandits NEED to keep their bandit numbers up.  Bandits can't buy more bandits, they can only slowly accrue them, and that is absolutely fine!  Bandits aren't supposed to be able to stand up to Clans.  However, when kidnap will end up sacrificing like ALL your bandits for no real promise of reward, it becomes a strictly terrible move :)
