OK. But lets look at a group like on:
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/stats/team/team_a_0_1.html
there are a lot of groups (like #3) that have no members, no results,
nothing! Why not disband these groups automatically?!

Why?  What is gained by the administrative overhead of implementing and 
rigorously testing the automation?  Who cares whether they are active now, 
or not?  Storage cost of few bytes of database storage versus the 
development cost of a whole new application branch.  No brainer...
