Could be if the extras were not originally billed as speaking parts, the threat was too not upgrade them to the pay grade for speaking parts.
I know in SAG-AFTRA productions there's a limit to how many words you can speak on camera before you have to get a SAG card, that usually comes with an upgrade in pay and benefits.
