Personally, I kind of hate this short season trend (one exception of Andor, a different beast entirely, which I loved). I think you're absolutely right about ROP. The pacing was uncomfortably and noticeably off. It all felt a little thin--butter scraped over too much bread 😂
I used to feel the same way about short seasons: I wanted more out of all the shows and was disappointed at the trend. I wouldn't say I *like* it now, but I at least understand some of the reasons behind it and the tradeoffs that come with it. And you've put it perfectly about ROP 😂. I overall enjoyed it but can't ignore some of the structural problems that it had, as well as some others that I'll get into next week. Here's hoping Season 2 improves in these areas!
