Passive or mute-invisible camera crew makes no sense

How many times would the camera crew either:

a) Been able to salvage/save the situation/someone from embarrassment or injury
b) HAD to have disclosed what they know because there was a crime happening or something

You could probably sit through this show and find way over a hundred examples without even trying, so I will just list a couple that I happen to remember right now.

How about the time Michael was 'lost', when the camera crew was RIGHT THERE with him? Could they not have called the office, let Michael use their phone, texted or, frankly, done MYRIAD of other things, like driving Michael back? Could the OTHER camera crew not have contacted Michael's crew and then communicated the information to everyone involved?

What about 'forgetting to lock doors' so burglars visit the building? Could the camera crew not notified Holly and Michael of this, or something?

How about the camera crew NOT telling anyone about any of it the next morning, although a crime happened? Shouldn't they be obligated to tell anything that may help solve the case, as in who forgot to lock the doors, etc..?

What about all these 'mysteries' that would be INSTANTLY solved, if even one of the camera crew opened their mouths?

Not telling Holly that Kevin is not really 'mentally challenged', but LETTING her keep thinking that, no matter what it causes Holly and Kevin to experience? Not telling Kevin that's what Holly thinks he is, and THAT is why she is treating him with such enthusiastic kindness? Playing with someone's emotions just to get more drama, even though they are supposed to be shooting a documentary, not drama? What? Why?

What about the cameraman staying silent although he could have DROWNED, when Michael drove into the lake?

When you watch this show with all this in mind, you will probably realize that it makes NO SENSE for the camera crew to be SO INCREDIBLY PASSIVE throughout the whole thing.

Dwight's 'fire drill' - so NO ONE blows the whistle and tells everyone it's just Dwight trying to cause chaos again, and not a real fire?

Also, there are really WEIRD instances as well, as in there being a cameraman shooting Michael's door in his office, just before someone bursts in, that ALSO has a camera following them (but somehow, we never see each other's cameramen, so they can also turn invisible!).

What was that lone cameraman doing in Michael's office, when Michael was there alone, doing pretty much nothing, and why were they already pointing the camera at the door just before someone bursted in (can't remember who it was)?

I mean, logically, do they need this many cameramen this close to each other to shoot a documentary, and do they need a lone cameraman in Michael's office, just filming Michael's door, when they have some other cameraman come in anyway together with the one that bursted in there?

Things start to look REALLY weird, when you realize you should actually be seeing a cameraman, because a split second ago, the same scene was shown from an angle that we are now seeing fully, and there's no one there... when you realize HOW many things the camera crew would have saved, had they not been.. completely mute?

So the cameracrew is either 100% passive (like the Watchers are supposed to be in the Fantastic Four universe in the comics) and don't say, do, yell, react, or anything, even if their life might be at stake, or when they could save someone tremendous frustration, embarrassment, effort, fear, and so on...

..or they are simply invisible or can teleport elsewhere instantly, or multi-locate, or or or..

..either way, the camera crew makes NO SENSE! Stop this nonsensical stuff already!

Either make a 'realistic documentary', or make it a normal TV show, don't try to juggle like this, because all you end up doing is take the worst of both worlds and then we get the 'shakycams' and 'mic removals' for dramatic effect, but all the OTHER stuff that ABSOLUTELY SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED is completely removed, as if it IS just a TV show, not a documentary.

You can't have it both ways, but this show surely tries hard to have it both ways and, of course, fails.
