Remember what happened? He was the first one voted off because everyone percieved him as the greatest threat to their winning the money.
As Averett said it is all about the interactions.

I love this show and have seen every episode, BUT I have a huge problem with the way people are voted off. As you mentioned, the show should be renamed "Interactor" instead of "Survivor." This is the same reason "The Weakest Link" failed so badly; they always voted off the strongest players instead of the weakest players, and the show always ended with mediocre slugs playing for all the money. Survivor works the same way.
There should be individual immunity available to certain people going to tribal council who have proven that they deserve to stay and not get blind-sided. That comes into play when the tribes merge, but it should be available at the beginning, too.
