It's a matter a difficulty in my mind, for exactly the reasons you're talking about.
It's harder to execute a long concept with good wording that stays relevant the entire time. If your wording is shit or the concept is weak that's your own fault. Doesn't really have much to do with the overarching formula.
It's much easier to write small back to back punches because you don't have to stay relevant and think up multiple creative angles and rhymes to match the set.
That's the distinction for me.
You can shoot a perfect free throw over and over and over, but if someone is always hitting threes while you do that, they're gonna win. You don't blame the three point line for being drawn too far out when people miss.
