They do this when they don’t want to have teenage kids’ and high school kids’ money left out of the box office, a desired demo for thriller slasher movies… because if it’s called Scream 5, that’s all of a sudden a task for that demographic to catch up on 1-4. At least when they do this title, the generic Scream movie title, it feels like to teenagers they can come into it as a group setting without having context of the original 4.
Movie studios have used this tactic before with Halloween (2007) and other film franchises that have built off previous storylines. They don’t want to leave money on the table they could make.

The 2007 Halloween was a reboot, not a sequel. But 2018’s “Halloween” was a sequel (to the OG Halloween 1 and 2 only, I think). So you’re right that what they’re doing with Scream isn’t unprecedented.
The Fast and The Furious franchise has been doing creative things with the sequel names for a while now.

Few good movie podcasts out right now... Bill Simmons and van lathan rewatch Juice was dope, also the ringer podcast network has a 8 part(30minutes each) pod on siskel and Ebert that's been dope so far, also the oral history of scream. All worth a listen if you got time.

Halloween was a direct sequel to the OG only.

Glad you enjoyed. If you want to check out more of Kurosawa's films, I recommend Pulse (streaming on HBO Max). I've heard good things about Creepy (on Criterion channel), but I havent seen that one yet.

Had no Idea Coopers character was based on a real producer. And that he produced the original A Star Is Born. And those were Alana's real parents?
