That makes sense, but it kind of ignores the spirit of the joke, which is that red shirts are cannon fodder brought on away missions to die. There being way more of them on the ship fits perfectly with that impression

It ignores the spirit, but not the technicality, which makes it technically correct. Which is the best kind of correct.

Also, you'd like the book Redshirts, by John Scazli. The away teams become self aware of the writing tropes.
