Yeah, those five are the PLAYERS. See the definition provided in 4-34-1.

I don't think this has ever been an issue in any of my games and I cannot recall anyone ever mentioning a 30second timout nightmare like this
If you understood the definiton of a player you wouldn't have written this. There are no "other players." There are only those five. The rest are properly called team members.
