That's why I haven't suggested Viola or Bartolomeo (although it seems like he will at least be a recurring character). I thought Rebecca wouldn't join for just the reason you mentioned until Viola was revealed to be next in line for the throne of Dressrosa. Now it's at least a possibility, even if we can't know for sure.
