Do teams not use the same 11 players on field goal blocks for every play?

I can understand how you get 12 players on defense because someone was confused about what package you’re running, but if you’re the 12th guy on special teams shouldn’t you stop and think “Hey, I’m not usually out here for these plays, maybe I’m an extra?”

    I’m trying to understand this but can you explain it? Isn’t the penalty for both the same? (5 yards). Why is offsides better than too many men on field? Thanks
