My guess is that the reactant it shows other people having is a local count. So if you join when someone has 3, your client won't know this. So when they have 10 you'll see them with 7.

Sometimes you join and it shows people already having reactant. This might disprove what I just said, but remember that you connect before you load into the game. So people can collect reactant while you are in the loading screen.

You can see this if you look around the map. You'll find reactant that dropped before you finished loading in. However reactant that dropped before you connected isn't shown.
