This may actually have been deliberate; not all of the NPCs in setting books get full traits due to space constraints. This is true in Hunting Ground: Rockies as well; some of the characters have full traits, while the others just get Merits, Gifts, Renown and that sort of thing.

This is correct. There are three types of stat blocks: full, abbreviated, and non-combatant. The abbreviated ones are for those characters who can "scale" with the needs of the characters they oppose, or those who fulfill only certain roles in a story. If you're not going to ever be in a gunfight with Vampire X, we don't waste space on telling you his paltry Firearms score.
