Isn't the expansion content between SCII's expansions and AoE2's expansions significantly different?

EDIT: the last one was 3 races (note: races are significantly less diverse in AoE2 vs in SC2) and 3 campaigns, each with 6 maps each

I feel like the Co-OP commanders they added fairly frequently would constitute roughly the same amount of race content. Campaign content not so much but the main campaign of each SC2 expansion is 26 stages, not including branching paths.

Not that much. Yes, AoE2 usually adds new factions, that won't happen in StarCraft II. But introducing new units or reworking existing one is possible.

Adding singleplayer mission is pretty mich the same.

Also the Co-op mode of SC2 is quite popular and there is room to add a "new factions" there.

No they're VERY different from what I checked. I'm not sure how you could possibly say "not that much" to that!

Different how?
