Why did airlines fly a 737 with full staff on board for just 3 economy grade passengers on a leg (like during times of COVID) ?

Largely to keep their airport slots that required flying. This isn't that.

Been there! CRW → CLT on Christmas Eve. Just me, and three air hostesses.

I assume it's so the planes will all be in the right place when they're needed the next morning.
