From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

What makes The Light at the End's doco any different from the other behind the scenes documentaries that have appeared on other Big Finish boxed sets over the years?

They're all around an hour long and they're all pretty much just a bunch of interviews.

In fact, if you divide any of the behind the scenes discs' running time amongst the releases it works out to be in general about 15-20 minutes per story, which is what the extras / extended extras are.

The issue with saying some extras are just interviews and some are documentaries is if say we do make pages for these (I'm still not in convinced) we need to have a firm definition of where the threshold lies.

If we were to pursue a page for the extras (be it the extras or the behind the scenes docos from The Light at the End or any of the boxed sets), then we'd need to apply it consistently.

There's I see no difference between The Light at the End doco, or the Counter-Measures S3 doco or the Dalek War bonus disc doco, they're all an additional disc / programme in addition to the story and they're all essentially longer versions of the extras included in the audio story. Nor are they really separate from the CD extras / extended extras, they're just longer.

The exceptions are things like "This is Big Finish" and Big Finish's Talks Back series they released some years ago which sit apart / cover multiple stories.
