I feel like there’s never going to be a complete universal agreement about what the canon should be like. Whatever they write, there will be some group of people that won’t like it, and they’ll make it their crusade to let it be heard as loud as possible regardless of what it is.
There’s a reason why people joke that nobody hates Star Wars more than Star Wars fans.
Depends, I personally prefer a canon to what happens with hero comics like Marvel and DC that have 20000 stories that contradict each other and they have to reboot everything in a 5 year cycle.
That’s exactly how canon is done badly. Why in the end it never helps anything.
They try to stay consistent across dozens of series, each with several writers. Eventually it becomes more of a hindrance than help, as all canon does; And they restart to clean up the mess.
But if they didn’t bother trying to keep a consistent canon to begin with. Instead, letting each writer tell their own story. They never have to wory about it. Each one can be self contained, and make changes as needed to tell the best version of their story.
Less movies less chance to fuck up the canon.
They are making the absolute most of their limited opportunities to fuck up canon, though.

The very concept of “canon” is a terrible idea anyway.
It never improves anything.
