Filoni doesn’t care about the books and other spinoff materials. He still goes by the old canon rules: movies trump TV, which trumps games, which trumps books and comics…
All of these people, Abrams aside, are just focused on telling a good story. They don’t care about the continuity outside of what they’re making. That’s why Ahsoka had blue lightsabers in The Siege of Mandalore, it was about visualising her relationship with Anakin and leaving that behind even though Books has already made her sabers green at that point.
Pablo is the one that works to wrangle everything to make sense together… but sometimes it just doesn’t matter.
