I feel this most keenly in the reboots of sitcoms from the 90s/00s. Things like That 90s Show used to have 24 episode seasons where you could do character growth in a bottle episode. This obsession with staying in that 10 episode envelope means that the structures of the shows are so compressed, you don't attach the way these shows needed us to to make them engaging.
I also feel this with NuTrek like Strange New Worlds when they do too many concept episodes that don't move the plot and the balance of the season feels rushed since they can't let anything breathe.
