Why ?  I guess I'm just being dense.  If garrisons either leave or end up
with one of their own corps, then the odds of successfully getting those
factors out of the former enemy territory are very good.  There is the
remote possibility that the nation in question will both a)  not have enough
room left in that corps, and b) not have any unused corps counters (very
unlikely, if the war has gone on any length of time).

I think these chances for getting garrison factors out are more than fair.
After all, there's no obligation to write the rule so that all garrison
factors are _guaranteed_ to get out, is there ?
