I think the results are incidental, and caused by entirely different sets of circumstances.
There were over 30 OGN StarLeagues, and over 20 MBC Game StarLeagues over the course of Brood War history, and nobody managed to win a huge bulk of either of these tournaments due to the rapid turn-over rate of talent.
It is different for the AfreecaTV StarLeague, because Flash has already won three out of the five that took place, and it is the same people competing against each other in an incestuous manner without a significant influx of new talent. It is the lack of competitive platform to showcase his dominance that is holding Flash back, rather than the cut throat nature of the available competition.

You took my argument way more seriously than I expected to.
Whether Flash will win 4th ASL or not, at this moment for one reason or the other he won 3 of each OSL/MSL/ASL which is funny as he was just denied 4th ASL.
