I suspect that for the organizer, the "Survivor" aspect is the key to the whole thing. I suspect he sees some $$$ possibilities. I think he could be more original and still make it a worthwhile series for OLN or other cable network. But, I suspect he hopes to make a good profit and thinks copying Survivor is the best chance. If you want him to change his idea you will probably need to offer a better scheme for making it pay. Maybe reconstituting "Iditayak" (assuming it doesn't still exist).
