Sometimes even my main squad which would mean the helper squad scales down once you hit a certain level or scales up until you hit a certain level. I think we need more data.

If it was removed, then I don't know, but I paid attention to my helpers (I weed out quite often during the first few days). Their highest level was always the same as my highest level. I noticed this because the early levels are blazing fast (remember to spam those gathers), it was too much of an coincidence that everyone on my list leveled up in sync with me. This might've been a way to prevent powerleveling alts with a main account.
