That's not apples to apples. It might appear to be but everyone's island is identical except for the area with workshops where the options are heavily limited. We have slots to place landmarks with minimal differences. Cropland and pasture is also limited. The number of permutations in Island Sanctuary is a tiny fraction of what a single housing plot offers in customization. Just because they gave us Island Sanctuary says nothing for their ability to increase housing supply.

I wouldn't be surprised if Island Sanctuary wasn't just an instance that everyone is in at the same time, except we don't see each other, and the Hideaway area works the way some quests work. Where areas look different (think tribe quests) depending on where you are in the questline. Think about when we harvest in a normal zone. I don't take your node, you don't take my node. Could be the same in Island Sanctuary.
