There was a release in every year, hence 5 years. 1968 was the first year, hencefor, 68 - 1, 69 - 1, 70 - 1, 71 - 1, 72 - 1: 5.
You are not 1 on the day you are born. Four years was the "topic"... Not the number of releases.

Beggars... Dec 68... Can you count that as a year?

Ok, I'll try it this way. Whilst acknowledging you are more a Stones expert than I and who's opinion I almost always agree with...
Recording on Beggars banquet stated in around June 1968, though rehearsals commenced February 21, so go the sake of the creativity argument I will grant the February 21 1968 start.
Jumping Jack Flash was recorded in March 1968.
Final overruns of Exile were finished in LA in February 1972.
So their creative, creative, peak ran from
Last week of Feb 68 through to Feb 69. 1 yr
Feb 69 -Feb 70. 1 yr
Feb 70- Feb 71. 1 yr
Feb 71 - Feb 72. 1 yr
Four years OF creativity, which makes them, and that period of creativity even more staggering.

i count 3 years becuz we didn't get to march in 72. 3 years. it's really only two years if you consider that Beggar's wasn't released until the end of 68, it was 69 really, so two years...yes, the big 5 happened in two years. shocking!
Good grief, forget CALENDAR years - the OP was about years of creativity. Four.

Not much point in listing mine now seeing as your listing is almost identical Redhotcarpet.
With the exception of Still Life, i know the sound is crap but i just love the atmosphere of that live album.

If you count the year they started working in that span, it was February 68. That's year one (the same with most sports seasons - if a player played from 1980-1988, he played 9 years - the two exceptions being basketball and hockey), that's one year until they started the 1969 LET IT BLEED sessions in February. They recorded in 1970, 1971 and 1972. That's 3 years.
They finished work on EOMS in March of 1972. So in that aspect, it was 5 years.
They had a studio (and one live) release for every year in that span - 1968-1972. That's 5 releases - one a year.

One way to consider this issue may be that it constitutes a time span of four years, but involving five calendar years. The latter relates to events within a whole number perspective, often employed, when we ask for instance which year was the richest in album releases.

Since we are talking about "worst" albums, by reflecting my ranking, the albums IT'S ONLY ROCK'N'ROLL, EMOTIONAL RESCUE, UNDERCOVER, DIRTY WORK, VOODOO LOUNGE and A BIGGER BANG have one thing in common: all of them were by the time they were released 'the worst album the Stones have released so far'.... I never saw any of them reviewed like that (but more like "best since EXILE/SOME GIRLS/TATTOO YOU haha...)
