Not everything is aimed at you honey, though...

This seems like an entirely baseless and conjecture based argument however, you have zero factual evidence backing this up. Besides, as Wolf has said, after a certain amount of time training becomes routine not necessarily rapid advancement. The vast majority of the Clone's training regiment would also be fitness training, which doesn't require formal training, only the fittest and best soldiers were even accepted into the Stromtrooper academies.
You also don't seem to understand, or seem to take into account, the phenomenally different training regimens the Clones and Stormtroopers were subjected to. Believe it or not, time is not the be all end all of development, pushing yourself beyond your perceived limits is often far more advancing than pushing yourself close to your limits on a daily basis. To that end, Stormtroopers were trained under barbaric circumstances, on high gravity planets such as Carida that subjected their muscles to agonising weight until they adapted. Stormtroopers were killed left right and center during training, not stunned using dummy blaster rifles. The fact of the matter is Stormtroopers were expected to excel far beyond the capabilities of a Clone in their training stages or die, two years was enough to force that level of growth. This is idea is perhaps best manifested in the fact that B3 Ultra Battle Droids - considered a challenge for Windu and Tiin together - were training foes on Carida, these droids were designed to tear through Clones like knives through butter, and would never have been standard training targets during the Galactic Republic.
By all means, come at me with actual proof that one training regime is better than another, but the notion that the Clones had better training because it was longer is absolutely farcical.

1. This would be impressive if not for the little facts that battle droids are pretty dumb and their accuracy is based on a basic algorithm which gives them terrible accuracy I mean Hevy was literally just side stepping at one point, the opposition here aren't droids. Comparison to opponents, the Rebels were far better than battle droids.
2. Yeah, cause the 501st an elite legion of Clones are representation of your average Clone Trooper.
3. Damaged Commando Droids, it's not as impressive really. I mean the droids were easily taken out by a partial destroyed table and a chair.

1. You're going to have to show me some stormtroopers that actually had good aim in order to put them above battle droids.
2. It's a good thing that Fives and Echo were considered to be among the worst of the clones (at one point, it was being considered whether or not to get rid of them) and we all know what they accomplished. You want me to bring up Cody, or Wolfe, or Gregor, or Ponds? Hell, a geriatric Rex is still a match for stormtroopers.
3. One man vs about eight partially damaged commando droids isn't impressive. How about you show me any normal stormtrooper that has a similar accolade.
While I'm at it, show me how stormtroopers win with their subpar tactics, non impressive weapons, and godawful aim.
Hell, even their armor is garbage in comparison to the clones.

Still debatable, we have a biased view because we see the good clones and the shit Stormtroopers (IE backwater planet soldiers or navy guards).
Don't forget TCW is the show that shows standard clones running out of cover to fight B-1 battle droids in a ****ing melee fight, and getting massacred etc.

I mean....I guess, but I just know that thanks to Rebels, Stormtroopers aren't going to be anywhere near their Legends incarnations. You know that with those showings, writers might go off of what was shown in Rebels and it's just....ew.
I mean what the hell kind of training was that in that one Rebels episode? That was deplorable. The commander did say
"In a few short weeks, you will leave as soldiers. Ready to serve your Emperor!"
Unless they have other training...that's what Disney has now and frankly with the way they treat the GE in other aspects...not expecting much. I have a hard time giving Canon the benefit of the doubt when it comes to the Empire.
Legends Storms would piss themselves laughing at such training. Imperial Army Troopers would piss themselves laughing too.
Clones had shown much better training qualities in Canon and just better overall frankly.
