Where should the Marvel Television series sit: tier two or tier three?

[synaps3s]

The catalogue sorts every title into one of three completeness tiers, and the
reader chooses which one they want with a single control:

1. Films only. Feature films, nothing else.
2. Films and series. The main run, in both formats.
3. Everything. One-shots, specials, the older television, and the films
   made by other studios.

Twenty-three Marvel Television series currently sit at tier three: the
Netflix run (Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron Fist, The Defenders,
The Punisher), Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Agent Carter, Inhumans, Runaways,
Cloak and Dagger, Helstrom. That is 416 episodes and about 327 hours.

The question is whether they should move up to tier two.

The case for moving them

They are no longer a separate shelf. Wilson Fisk and Matt Murdock both appear
in Echo and Daredevil: Born Again, which are Marvel Studios productions
sitting at tier two. So a reader who asks for "films and series" now meets two
characters whose entire history is filed one tier below, in the bin labelled
"everything, including the things made by other studios". That is the
catalogue telling them something that stopped being true.

The case against

Four hundred and sixteen episodes. Tier two currently promises the main run in
both formats, and somebody who picks it expecting the Disney+ series would
suddenly be handed nearly three hundred and thirty hours more, most of it made
before the connection existed. A tier is a promise about size as much as about
content, and this would quietly break it.

A third option

Split them. The Netflix six are now connected by cast and by plot, so they
could move to tier two while Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Inhumans, Runaways,
Cloak and Dagger and Helstrom stay at tier three. The cost is that the rule
stops being "who made it" and becomes a judgement about each series, which is
harder to explain and harder to apply to the next one.

What would help

If you have watched some of this, the useful thing to say is not which option
you prefer but what you expected to get when you picked "films and series".
The tiers exist to answer that question, and right now I only have my own
answer to go on.
