The other thing is "views" is somewhat irrelevant to a streaming service. If a show gets a lot of views but no change in subscriber count than it doesn't have the same value as a movie that sells a lot of tickets.

Sorta. Streaming services are looking to do things. Get new subscribers and keep old ones. Getting new subscribers is presumably easy to evaluate. I imagine they can see what shows are watched by new subscribers. That gives a good idea of what shows are getting people to subscribe. But keeping viewers is tricky to measure and viewership is closest approximation you are going to get, mostly in the sense that you can rule out a show with poor viewership as a subscriber draw.
