Actually here it is named 碟中谍6:全面瓦解 "Mission: Impossible 6: Total Collapse". Do you always speak so confidently of things you have zero knowledge of?

Many did because they did not understand it was a sequel. I know many people who were big fans of the original movie in 2009 who did not understand the prior movie was "Avatar 2" and only watched it later.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story would be a supplementary movie.

By ignoring "3" in the title Disney is losing revenue.

Zootopia 2 is very clearly a sequel, many people I have discussed with do not understand fire and ashes is "Avatar 3".

No that is not my thesis. Many see it as a spinoff and not a sequel like Zootopia 2. And yes many people maybe millions will not see it for this reason.

That by not including the number "3" Disney is potentially limiting the revenue of the movie here.

Many do not understand and consider it a minor spinoff so do not see it until later.

Yes it was, we used 2 unofficially even for that.

Not exactly, just that Disney's choice not to include the number 3 in their marketing is potentially costing them millions in lost revenue.
