The other reason the alleged Trojan admins like building up edits fighting vandals is that it involves minimal talk-page interaction, which means they leave less of a distinctive "voice," making it harder to identify them.
Maybe, but I can think of a lot of other reasons. For instance, it's easy compared to writing new articles. It's not something that requires concentration or long periods of effort. It doesn't require writing skills. And it avoids interpersonal contact, which is more of an issue on-line than a lot of people realize. Your explanations are too speculative.
