I don't know enough to answer this but maybe I can provoke an idea. Ginna Jar is specifically named as part of the lightbringers but is otherwise an uninvited guest, in effect there are 6 + a named but silent extra hence we know there are 7. For the trio there could be 3 + an unnamed silent 4th for the same reason?
