The thing with Riders is that like... hm, how do I put this.
If you're not a completionist, right? And you just want the main title character to represent the series, no other secondaries and later heroes yadda yadda; just what you have at base as the big symbol of the series? You get the Main Rider's main form. You get Rising Hopper, you get Rabbit/Tank, you get Mighty you get Sword Form you get Tatoba.
The equivalent to that for Sentai is a full team of 3-5.
Even when they're there at the start, a secondary rider is never like, just a part of a team. Even in stuff like Blade and Ex-Aid and Hibiki where you do have Riders working together right from the get-go, it's really not the same thing as Sentai. In Rider, each hero is their own individual before they're a part of a team. In Sentai, each hero is part of the team before they're their own individual. Sixths and extra heroes breaking those rules notwithstanding.
I mean, like, just look at how most collectors view it even. When it comes down to Sentai or PR figures coming out, it's always constantly "oh I hope they make the others soon so I can complete the team", and with Rider it's like "god I'm loving Vulcan and Horobi right now more than I thought I would, I think I might pick them up after all". It's not like there's not overlap here and it's not like the opposite scenario won't happen; where you'll definitely get people who'll only want RPM Black or ShinkenPink or MMPR Blue, or people that will refuse to have anything less than the main form of all riders in a given show. But that happens a lot more rarely than the other way round.
