tl;dr - the showrunner believes it's the fan's fault.

Which, I guess, in a sense is true.

Because the show was hot garbage, even by the standards of Disney Star Wars, which means it was the worst of an already bad bunch of Disney slop.

So between the show being shit and Disney assuming we're all little piggies who will gladly eat up any slop labeled Star Wars, the show was received at face value for what it was, and without any goodwill to prop it up.
