Perhaps I wasn't clear enough, but more likely it's just that attempt to give these fanatics some perspective will be met with the knee-jerk response of: "Yeah, but you're wrong an didn't account for [X]...!"
I took a few minutes to analyze what GF calls Bruce's "intense" "creative" period, but if you want a better look at their respective careers, here goes...
Each artists' studio albums are numbered. Queen jump WAY out in front early and consistently with regularly released albums, slowed only by the inconvenient death of Freddie in 1991, after which, Bruce takes15 more years to catch up.

To give Bruce the benefit of the doubt, I've included his solo albums and his E Street Band albums and excluded Queen's solo material because after all, a four on one contest is hardly fair. That said, Bruce has a pretty unmatched level of output for one man, which impresses me as much as David Bowie's level of output.
Still, because someone brought up The Darkness/Promise comparison, I'll say it again...nice and slow...using simple words:
Queen released their music when they recorded their albums.
Bruce, especially in this case, did not.
That's why Bruce's vault is full of albums of unreleased songs and Queen's is not.
Any other myths you want me to dis-spell?
The comparison is not between the two careers you insufferable, babbling ass. It's between a product that will please devoted plans and products that continually comes up short on same. End of.
Queen = 16 album releases but could've been more (although enough for a band who toured relentlessly for large spells of their existence) and the majority of these releases were packed full of gems - so quality over quantity. (Most) material released when albums came out, but still demos, jams and great quality live stuff unreleased that we crave. If this stuff came out, we would not be disappointed but that would be it - everything would be out.
Springsteen = tonnes of output for one man when compared to the output of lots of bands, but the majority of it, to be fair, is shit. There are only a handful of albums worth bothering with and, out of these, maybe just a handful of tracks. So quality loses out to quantity. As for his unreleased stuff, surely this would just be more disappointing shit if he's released the stuff he thinks is worth releasing?
So springsteen may have lots of stuff in the archives we've yet to hear, but it's fair to say he was guilty of mass producing material of lesser quality - Queen definitely went for content over bulk.
