Why would non-actors be voice acting? They wouldn't be actors if they were normal people who lack a basic skill all actors learn how to do. Improv is how actors learn to embody a character, by acting like them in non-scripted situations.

You don't happen to have a source for that?
If I recall in one of the season 5 special feature interviews with the cast they mention the writers curbed their improv on the later seasons and told them to follow the scripts more closely.
