I was in the exact same situation an felt frustrated by the increased cost.
Seemed to me that buying in bulk should cost less, not more!

To us the real advantage of teams is the centralized billing. Though you
can't really add/subtract seats quickly, if you add a seat you need to pay
for the rest of the year for that seat or pay a pro rated penalty.

Even in teams you have to create individual email accounts for each seat
which was also bizarre since we have multiple freelancers rotating thru
workstations as needed.

In the end we connected with a local adobe reseller who was able to get us
on board a 40% discount adobe was offering on teams, which was great. Then
we setup an email alias for each account that forwards to me: cc1@, cc2@,
cc3@, etc. We share a Google spreadsheet tracking which seats are activated
on which workstation.
