Disagree. The trilogy has an extended arc, yes, but each movie also has an arc (or more). So it’s still not REALLY one 10h ish movie.
Interestingly, the end of fellowship doesn’t really match the end of a major arc to me. You can argue it’s the break of the fellowship, but I think the stronger arc in fellowship is the arrival at rivendell.
The end of fellowship DOES coincide with the beginning of several minor arcs though which I guess is the point.
I guess, honestly I’ve started watching movies in pieces and it doesn’t bother me. Like start watching it, pause it and leave the rest for tomorrow if I feel like I’ve had enough for now.
Thing with series is that the episodes are usually at least somewhat, well, episodic, and you have obvious breakpoints.
If a movie has the usual three act structure, each act of a ten hour movie would be over three hours long.
Lord of the Rings Extended Trilogy checks this box nicely.

I, too, like to spit into my fellow humans
Hey 😘
Please, let me brush my teeth first! 😄 (But seriously, I like your beaver pics)
If you factor in the usual trilogy structure, that’s only nine acts at an hour+ each
