Then we need to give other incentives to attend.

Frankly, a noble who was never seen publicly would have problems
keeping his stats up--particularly prestige, as it's hard to be
talked about a lot when no one ever sees you, and honour, as people
will wonder what you're doing all that time, and why you won't let
people see you.
It will simply add another element of realism to the experience of
being a noble.
I'm not sure it's a necessary feature--but I do like that aspect of
it, at least.
