TPIR features each contestant for a max of maybe ten minutes, and they're simply vehicles for the show to continue to function, akin to a news show interviewing witnesses to an event. Survivor is a reality show where the contestants are actively part of the show. They're treated like cast members, albeit disposable ones. I was only thinking in terms of one season at a time, but I would absolutely expect one season worth of contestants to be present.

This was my thought process. Contestants on game shows are kind of just "guest appearances" instead of main cast members. I think they're worth taking into account slightly but only as like backup

It's sort of why The Reharsal and Nathan for You were both considered primarily just about fighting Nathan, since he's arguably the only person to be considered the main cast
