Hi @ahbuch,

I think that's because the "other people" is a subset of all of the people mentioned in the first sentence. It is not ALL people, only SOME people, so we're not able to use S/N.
"Only a few" is likewise a small subset of all of the people. With S/N statements, we're talking about ALL the people.
