I don't think anybody thinks 120 or 100 segments is easy. If that is what I needed to achieve, then I would not be a 1K. No way.
I did make 1K on miles as well but that included a SFO-SYD trip which was unusual. Without that I would still be 15K EQMs short. It does skew my averages somewhat but the point is still valid - I spent more than 200 hours in the air and not 50.

I doubt most international fliers compete much with segment fliers for upgrades to begin with.
