You are actually DAMNING your argument than actually helping like diorama said.

If they had a 12 episode series, they shouldn't introduced so many plot points that they can't be solved sufficently in 12 episodes, I mean we had:

- Equalists/bending privilege, which was not really solved and ended pretty fucking sloppy with Amon's reveal as a bloodbender (which even made more plotholes like how bloodblending managed to mimic energybending?)

- Korra's issues with connecting with her spiritual side that made it hard to airbend. The Probending bits seemed like it was going to be a means to that goal, but that was pretty much dropped after finally putting off that one airbending method early on. The other time she bothered connecting to their spiritual side was finding out the mystery of Yakonne. But she manages to solve that because Mako was in danger of losing his bending? Not when Tenzin and his kids were, not when SHE was? And she did this with force... which was the problem in the first place. Let's not mention that Korra's projection of herself is tied up with her bending and being the Avatar not being really addressed ended up endorsing those beliefs being her the rest of her bending back.

- The love triangle... that wasn't necessary. If you were going to make a love triange, please don't just use it for a weak prop for the destined pair. Korra and Mako didn't really need it and when the pretense was over, Bolin was pushed aside and Asami would too if it wasn't for her issues with her father. I personally think, you can't pull off an effective love triangle with a 12-episode limit with so much other stuff ongoing on. Plus, it ended up putting the intended in a bad light, especially Mako with the derailment of his character.

All of that was not going to resolved in a 12-episode miniseries. A 24 episode series? It's possible, but not 12.

You just proved that the writing was bad for a 12 episode miniseries.
