Add it bears repeating then: intentional, or not, not being able to disband units is a major flaw in the game as far as some of us see it. There are nations that can ill afford to be "gifted" by random packs of fanatics and militia, that rout at the drop of a hat, and end up scattered to the nine winds, all the while eating up your precious gold (and food). Folks on this forum say that you can herd them and use them to suicide. Well, it doesn't work. It takes valuable time (and a commander) to try to do that, and they tend to rout before they can be useful by dying gloriously for the good of the faith, taking some enemy heathens with them. It wouldn't be quite so bad if the fanatics were truly that, and had high morale. But they don't.
Occasionally I get "lucky" and a province I've parked a bunch of these near-useless mouths-to-feed gets attacked by a large AI force and every Last one of them gets wiped out before they can rout. But not often. Sigh.
