[Avodah] Why isn't Sefira 2 Mitzvos

[rabbirichwolpoe at gmail.com]

Given:
A passuk in Emor to count (up to) 50 days

Another passuk in Re'eh to count 7 weeks

AND given
A memra from Abbaye to count BOTH days AND weeks!

Shouldn't this be a classic model for sefira being 2 separate mitzvos?

If not - why not?
