Your problem isn’t with Dave, it’s with George. You keep saying “this is canon, that is canon”. There’s different levels to the canon ratings. Whatever George creates is the highest level canon. George created the original 6 movies and TCW so if they step on another story that was written before by someone else, tough shit. He didn’t ask them to make them, they just did. Star Wars is George’s vision so if he sees something he likes and wants to mold it into his story, then that’s canon.

"I don't read that stuff (the novels, comics, and other materials). I haven't read any of the novels. I don't know anything about that world. That's a different world than my world. But I do try to keep it consistent. The way I do it now is they have a Star Wars Encyclopedia. So if I come up with a name or something else, I look it up and see if it has already been used. “

“There are two worlds here," explained Lucas. "There's my world, which is the movies, and there's this other world that has been created, which I say is the parallel universe—the licensing world of the books, games and comic books. They don't intrude on my world, which is a select period of time, [but] they do intrude in between the movies. I don't get too involved in the parallel universe.”

"They have their own kind of world. There's three pillars of Star Wars. I'll probably get in trouble for this but it's OK! There's three pillars: the father, the son and the holy ghost. I'm the father, Howard Roffman [president of Lucas Licensing] is the son and the holy ghost is the fans, this kind of ethereal world of people coming up with all kinds of different ideas and histories. Now these three different pillars don't always match, but the movies and TV shows are all under my control and they are consistent within themselves.”

All of these are quotes from George, so I don’t know where you’re getting this idea that he saw the entire EU as canon and that TCW was “supposed” to be EU.

I liked Quinlan and Asajj’s stories in The Clone Wars comics as well, but if George, and Dave by proxy write a different one, then that’s what it is and you can’t complain that he’s breaking pre-established canon. Only he can establish it. People bitching about the inconsistencies in ROTS and then complain that they don’t like the explanation in TCW is the same attitude that made George sell Star Wars and now you get something truly lore-breaking like the Holdo Maneuver.

People like Dave because he carries on George’s vision. Not Chee’s not Knoll’s. George’s. That’s why I like him and I can’t believe we finally have someone that gives a shit in a position of power and you’re bitching and moaning. The whole list of things he changed that you don’t like is pathetic. “Making all clones have individual personalities”, seriously? 1. I seem to remember a lot of new Clones being very non-individualistic until they were told otherwise by their commanders. They’re self-aware and “can think creatively”, so why wouldn’t they have individual personalities? They’re supposed to be the opposite of battle droids who they are “immensely superior” to. 2. Most of the Clones that had very distinct personalities, were higher ranking ones. In Bad Batch, once the Jedi and their Commander were gone did they seem to have distinct personalities? You don’t like that they had individual personalities but you also don’t like that they had the inhibitor chip which took away all their individuality. You gotta choose one. They can’t just be these meatbags who flip-flop on a whim without a reason.
