Have you ever actually looked at how many takes they did of various songs?
>70+ takes of ATMP (not sure why this isn't included in the pic, George pulled it himself btw)
>101+ takes of Not Guilty
vs
>21 takes of MSH
The reality is that George wasn't good at directing the Beatles in the studio and his songs generally took more takes than usual. He wasn't decisive or assertive enough to efficiently develop the songs into something good. When he had more confidence towards the end of the group and as a solo artist, he was better at it and it showed in the songs.
Also John and Paul earned the right to waste time on a few crappy songs in between a near constant stream of hits and masterpieces. George regularly wasted his precious 2 songs on forgettable shit without compensating with great songs.
