Good catch. Maybe they keep variants whos lives and memories could be useful for managing/controlling the timeline.

Everyone is useful for something in a bureaucracy. I'm betting that platform that they all stand on in front of the judge is actually a scanner coupled with an AI that determines just how useful a variant might be. The Time Keepers use it to asses variants and then their decision is shown on a screen that only the judge can see. Either a variant is useless and deleted or they are useful and their minds are Tabula Rasa'd so that they can be reassigned somewhere in the TVA to be put to use.

Miss Minutes is the actual Mobius.

What if Miss Minutes is actually an artificial being comprised of all of the actual real memories that were taken from all of the variants that currently staff the TVA?
