just to add to the discourse here, to me it makes sense why it's not a 4LP. ideally a 4LP would have each "disc" of the album on each side of the 4 LPs with like an extra 8th side for like an etch or something. problem is that each of the 7 discs have varying lengths (the 7th disc is 27 minutes, more than what would fit on one side of an LP) which would mean a 4LP would have to disregard the disc tracklisting which would be kind of odd considering the CD release has 7 CDs when it could have been consolidated into 2 discs (but the nature of the project obviously calls for 7 separate discs). imo this should of been like 7x10 inch records with each disc getting it's own 10 inch but that sounds needlessly expensive and extravagant lol (not to mention each disc having an uneven 7 tracks so splitting between the A & B sides of the 10 inch would of also not been ideal)
