I don't know. I watched the show, but wasn't by any means a superfan or something.

In the last season or so of the build team, the dynamics had changed. Keri and Tory, who had gotten along fine before, seemed unable to keep their dislike of each other out of the show. It went from "Okay, that's a pretty funny prank" to "You are actively trying to hurt each other." At least as I recall it.

I don't know, maybe they worked it out. But I do recall a season or so that was genuinely uncomfortable to watch, because of the dynamics between people on the show - and it was a distinct change from previous seasons.

Here’s another hypothesis: none of it was real, but rather manufactured drama in an attempt to drive up ratings. If those seasons were reformulated for mainstream, that would be the simplest explanation about how both things can be true.
