You are ignoring that "a season" can be 6 episodes or 30.

Great shows are often 6-12 episodes for 5+years.

Most streaming shows have far shorter seasons than classic TV sitcoms/dramas/soaps.

The same model is used for broadcast television in Britain - the standard British 'series' is 6-12 episodes. (Apart from soap opera, which cranks out massive amounts each year.)
