If Lewandowski continues to score just as little, then it is very likely that some "regular" striker from the average team will be able to get around him. 23 goals is not at all the level in modern realities, not only for La Liga, but even for the Premier League, where Kane scores 30 goals in a season and he is still not in first place (because of Haaland).
To begin with, comparing Laliga to the English Premier League is ludicrous; they are profoundly different from one another. Harry Kane and Erling Haaland remained the consistent top goal scorers in england, there energy are unmatchable. Barcelona are progressing gradually, they are getting better with winning clubs in La Liga, yet to improve to the next level. Robert Lewandowski is doing everything he can to adapt to the La Liga style of play. The Poland international has been competitive from the start, and his teammates have been equally encouraging, delivering important assists that have led to goals.

La Liga cannot be compared to the Premier League. There are several big clubs in the Premier League and all have strong squads. On the other hand, apart from Barcelona and Real Madrid, the rest of the clubs in La Liga are relatively weak. Lewandowski's performance was quite good last season. The important thing is that Lewandowski's performance was quite consistent last season so he was able to score a lot of goals. Hopefully, we will see more excellent performances from Lewa in the coming season.

These comparisons across different leagues are not trivial sometimes because so many factors come into play. You could also mention Atletico Madrid as a strong team even when they didn't perform as good as they did in the seasons before. But when you take Sevilla and see how they eliminated Manchester United from the Europa League, it becomes obvious that a comparison isn't easy. Should we consider the position in the table? Then it is Manchester United who were much better, but when we see how Sevilla won against them in the home game, the whole comparison should be worked out differently. I agree that the Premier League is better overall, but in matchups between teams from both leagues some of the results could be much closer than a general comparison would suggest.
