While I understand that anime seasons as a whole are an inconsistent mixed bag (Mob Psycho 100 comes to mind - a series with 3 seasons, however each season is given names such as Mob Psycho II, Mob Psycho III, etc., as well as JoJo's Bizarre Adventure taking place in "Parts", but Part 1 and 2 airing in a single season) but this is exactly why the community should be listened to when considering such decisions.
The website may use absolute numbering, but almost everywhere else (including other official sources such as promotional material) consider this a new season, "Season 1" has a start and end point you would expect of an anime season, as does Season 2, and almost every other database and source registers "Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2" properly, making cross-compatibility a nightmare.
I fail to see how the moderators of TMDB would so rigidly defy the general consensus on this, let alone completely lock the creation of new seasons (defeating the purpose of a community-driven media database).
If the rules state that you have to purposefully butcher the content's order and grouping in a database, then forgive me for saying that perhaps those rules deserve a second look.
I must urge TMDB to reconsider their stance on this.
I'm just curious how this works, since looking at One Piece on this site, it has the episodes broken into multiple seasons but the episode numbers do not start at 1 for each season like you said. I feel like this is inconsistent?

It is inconsistent. One Piece is a show that's planned to have this fixed. But due to the amount of episodes, it's taking a while to actually get around to dealing with it, and iirc, the mods plan to automate the process.

How is thing going on for almost a year?
I've only glanced over this thread, but it seems the community unanimously says this should be 2 seasons.
Are mods here really this tonedeaf?
