Even with identical security stance (which I doubt) across services I'd still expect this because A) pwnable accounts on existing services were most likely already pwned, whereas Disney+ has a mass onboarding of pwnable accounts, so it's Christmas for scrit kiddies and B) there's a ton of attention on Disney+ right now so there will be much more press scrutiny regardless of the true scale of the problem.

C) The early wave that seems to have been most targeted was early signups that included big sales on 2 and 3-year prepurchases. Risk/reward balance on stealing those accounts must have been hugely tempting.
