Why not? Both can and in some cases do represent unnecessary bloat, which is an increased cost often passed on to the students, and can be extremely difficult to reduce.
Anything can be bloat. Thats not an argument for treating completely different functional roles, tracks, types of people in a university as interchangeable.
You don’t fix engines, or any sophisticated system, by treating its various parts as functionally the same.
Unless that information isn’t available, but universities are openly observable systems.
