Shell FCs are a bigger problem than we think...

[Almagnus1]

That gives me data about FCs with 3 or less people.
How can we tell from this data which are shell FCs and which are simply small FCs?
That is the part I can't follow.

Why should a failed FC with less members than what was needed to create it be able to hold land?

All FCs with less than 3 members should lose their houses BECAUSE of the shell FC problem. That frees up roughly 10% of the houses worldwide to either become personal houses (which there is a strong demand for) or gets them to FCs that don't have a house and have at least 4 members (which about half of the FCs that are 4+ members don't have an FC house IIRC).

Edit:
10% is a guesstimate, too lazy to actually math this out >.>
