Yeah, I dont want to see Carrot become a SH either, she's ok for an arc tagalong, but not as a permanent member. If Oda had worked the minks into the story early on then Carrot joining would be more plausable and right, but not at this point. Anyone who joins the SH's now needs to have full appreciation of what they are getting themselves into, and they need to able to contribute big time to the SH end goal. Besides, isn't the crew already full just as Luffy wanted.
