My point is that there was never a time in the process of making X-Files where they thought or conceived that they were gonna do 24 episodes a year of myth-arc. The concept was always about doing a roadshow around America showing weird paranormal stuff, and also we have this broader conspiracy storyline going on at the same time.

"Filler", to me, implies that they aren't an integral part of the design and structure. Like, in an ongoing manga-to-anime adaptation, filler episodes are episodes that you shove into the story because the anime is too far ahead in the story and needs to let the manga build a lead, right?

So to me, MOTW episodes in a show like X-Files can't be called filler, because they're as much the point of the show as the myth-arc episodes. It's different (to an extent) with a show like Fringe, where the myth-arc IS the point of the show, and they have to loop in myth arc elements into the MOTW episodes to justify their existence. But X-Files has much less emphasis on the overarching story by comparison.
