The obvious reason a host would ask is to try and beat the smuggler at game theory. If everyone thinks the host will pick a strong player, the smuggler will hide a strong player, which reduces the value to the host of the spore. However, if the host knows that, they can then pick a weak/inactive player, which would help their numbers.

I'm not saying Timbo's host, (he could just as easily be the smuggler looking for help, or a passenger trying to generate conversation/ideas) but I wouldn't exclude him as host based on that comment.
