It really doesn't seem like it would have been hard to default to the currently selected character, only about one of the party members even has proficiency in social skills.

And sometimes it literally just bugs out, one time I entered the main room of Moonrise Towers and it switched control to Shadowheart.

Even in those situations I'd rather the game run them, it tends to keep to a more consistent personality.
