I think it's fair to colour seasons and episodes with different scales because they are measuring different things.

Due to the Central Limit Theorem, average of 20+ episodes will have a smaller standard deviation than individual episodes.

For example, an individual episode with a score of 6 you'll probably watch. A whole season with a score of 6, maybe not.
