Why is the whole stock component in compensation considered as part of TC in Blind posts when it vests over 4 years ?

Stocks typically vest over 4 years in most tech companies. Wouldn't it be better to include only 1/4th of stock as part of TC when communicating here on blind and in general ? For example, a typical blind post says - Base : 100K RSU 400 K TC 500 K
Wouldn't base 100k rsu 100k TC 200 k be more accurate representation of what I would earn in one year ? Of course bonus , refresher etc will change next year. Please advise what am I missing ?#tech #compensation

When talking about TC, people averages the RSU per year or based on vesting schedule each year
Your understanding is correct for TC
At senior manager, it jumps to target annual TC of almost 1M.
