I've seen both terms used "separatists" and "strangers" in referring to different people. Wish I had my old school books ... .

As I understand it separatists refers to the 40 or so Pilgrims. Strangers appears once in Bradfords papers, referring to the 60 or so non-Pilgrims on the Mayflower, but was not a commonly used term. I believe the term "strangers" was popularized by a book published in the 1940s, but not much used before that. There's nothing I've ever seen that would equate strangers with Jews, and as I've noted if a single proven Jew sailed on the Mayflower, I'm certain it would be noted in multiple sources, particularly publications of Jewish history.

Jews possibly could have been on the Mayflower. Many Jews all throughout history have taken steps to hide their Jewishness to survive under difficult circumstances. The true hidden history of the Jewish diaspora is a fascinating one. Many genealogical sites are now pulling all the threads together.

Imagine, one day in the future, a genealogical resource that lists and connects all of the 40,000,000,000 human beings that have ever lived ?

It would be an amazing resource.
