Just because some people may be strong enough to cope with derogatory insults being flung at them, and may have a good enough relationship with a certain person to understand what's a joke and what isn't - it doesn't mean that everyone else is the same. Would you tell a 13 year old boy struggling with their sexuality to 'get over it' if they were upset at someone calling them a 'shirtlifter'? It's all about context, and I'm afraid not everyone is mentally strong enough to deal with that - and saying 'well they're going to have to be' is such a cop out since that can't just happen overnight.
Once again I say this as a fan of Jim - because no doubt someone will point out I'm only criticising him because I dislike him.

Is the correct answer.
Whilst yes, under that format the bigger characters may still go - at least it's a level playing field and they have lost out through their own poor gameplay. Trusting the viewers with the decisions barely ever works, since they are incapable of thinking logically, and it almost always ruins the series. It's time to scrap it and either decide evictees based on social media mentions (guaranteed to get rid of the dispensable characters) or just take on the US format.
