Regardless of different albums and all of that, you should be able to say whether a song sounds like single material or not. You can either take it in context of the album it belongs to or it terms of the two songs I stated. Both results are the same, RTM doesn't sound like a obvious single/hit and RMBS does.
That's not trying to say any of that extra mess you're implying. Nicki chooses songs that don't necessarily sound like singles and makes them singles; all artist do that. So no comparing RTM to HIA & Catch Me or any of that because she doesn't have to compare it to those songs to decide a single. She could have chosen singles based on what wigs she wanted to wear in the videos.
We don't know the rationalization of these things all the time BUT we do know what songs sound like they could do well on the radio and charts and what might not. RTM doesn't necessarily sound like a hit but it did well for itself. That's all.
I could care less if any song was a single or not because this isn't about that. It's about what it song itself sounds like.

You could've summed this up a bit more, but anyways being single worthy isn't always about getting a hit. Sometimes the artist wants to deliver a certain message, or show listeners what the album's sound will be.
If I recall correctly, you brought up if it was single worthy or not & I responded. The song could have been better, but still don't discredit it. It's really quite that simple.
