When this happens usually the show isn’t done to release it all at once. And to reduce the gap between seasons and to also maintain some level of binge watching they release two batches. It’s done as a middle ground because else you’d just be waiting longer for full season while they finish up the later eps or you’d have an arguably more annoying weekly model.

Agreed. Post-production schedules are often tight. When I worked at a post house, I was usually working on series of shows as they aired. Plenty of networks want to get the ROI on their shows as quickly as possible.

You is probably having some problems that won’t let the later episodes hit the deadline for release. They’re probably problems that can be solved with more money, but why spend that when Netflix can still hit their premiere date and get an extra month of user retention out of the show?
