Meanwhile, I reached out to Netflix, and they said to say, “Aw that’s cute. All those little numbers are cute.”

Awww Fundy.
If only you knew what the numbers meant. What it means is that is the average number of people at any minute of an episode of a programme.
The number of people who watched part of an episode of a programme will be a lot higher.
Then if they decided to report monthly figures as many/most streaming services do, then the numbers would be dramatically higher.
Then of course, if they reported it at a network level it would be higher again. Which … of course … would be the closest approximation to an internally derived and unchecked ‘subscriber number’ … but higher.
Anyway, I’ll let you rant and rail later as I have probably offended your false sense of size.
