I look at it this way: there are 4 ways you interact with your allies. 1) Use their helper squad, 2) they use your helper squad, 3) they spawn raid bosses that you attack for rewards, and 4) they can help kill raid bosses you spawn. Only #1 is meaningful for an inactive ally.
So if you find their squad still useful, then keep them on. Otherwise, I'd usually rather have the slot occupied by someone who is actually gaining something by attacking my bosses or using my squad.

Inactive allies don't show up in the helper list, so....
