Allies are part of a PC's writeup and therefore not covered by that dictum which is more accurately described as "Silly rabbit, points are for players". It is necessary to provide relevant stats for anything the players are going to interact with, and that means a quite extensive writeup of someone who interacts with the PCs in many different ways. It is not necessary to work out their point values unless they are actually part of a PC's writeup.
