You are making poor assumptions. You have to take in data from what is happening and what has happened in the past. There are many variables to take into consideration and you guys are taking in one or two of them from the most unlikely of scenarios.

If every single player purchased a lifetime sub and every single player played for 10 years. Yeah, that would be bad.

This is not ever going to happen.

So you take into consideration all figures such as how long does the average player play for, how long will they stick around, how will players who do not purchase the lifetime sub option balance out, how much data will be expended in this amount of time, etc.

You forget some other basic things as well, such as players indecisive about whether or not they like the game yet and spending around $45 in monthly subs before actually making up their mind and purchasing a lifetime sub.
Lol, I know not everyone isn't going to do it. that's why I applied Legacy to all, I could do the same with everyone not being Legacy and it would change both figures of Lifetime and 10 yr but the distance apart would be the same.

I know everyone won't do the same thing :P. and alot of things will vary the numbers 1/4 of the Population could go lifetime, 1/4th 1 year, 1/4th 6 months, 1/4th monthly. Numbers would be hard to crunch without know what everyone is doing, and the only people that can determine that is SE.

What I posted was just merely an example, but everything can change when it comes down to Official figures. Really the math isn't my concern as to what they do, as long as the game is good, it's worth my 10 bucks a month =).
