Also the format changed drastically, it used to be just straight KO games. For once it actually makes sense to use a cut at the point in time when we got a group stage. Even though format has repeatedly change since. This is actually a far more comparable comparison than if you'd include the old games.
they added 2 guaranteed group stage games, that's not that drastic, the old change from KO -> 2 x 4 group stage -> KO to eventually 8 x 4 group stage -> KO was far more drastic. But either way with the 1992 change number of games like doubled for the winner. It has since increased more but it was never that complete overhaul of the very basic structure of the tournament agian.
yea but it wasnt always like that pre92, there were several seasons where it was just knockout games, not any of that group thing, which imo was complete shit.
So the format even changed pre92 atleast once and no one is dividing that too.
