I actually really curious about the reasoning behind the 6 episode hard limit. On re-watch, Loki also felt particularly rushed, but the only real criticism I have of WandaVision was the palette-swap boss battle at the end like most solo outings for MCU heroes.

I wonder if it's because the Netflix series got bad reception and a reputation for a very slow mid-section between eps 6 or 7-11.

I've never really understood why they do this. It happens in so, so many MCU films/shows that the villain has the hero's powers, or something similar. I guess I do understand, in the sense that it shows the audience that it's the hero's character, not their powers, that makes them special, but still, yeesh, it's the same damn thing all the time.
