Which could or could not be important to the story in question. Setting continuity is not important in the movie where John Wick shoots 187 people in the face because he’s mad about his dog
Star Trek is one of my favorite IPs and they took canon out back and shot it in the head on day one
the dog one is the first story, it literally only could have internal issues.
but once you have a sequel or second episode it’s always important to the story, because fucking it up undermines everything. You can go full dexter’s lab and reset everything every time, but once you put on the mantle of continuity and ask us to care about events over time then you owe us better than voyager. A “good story” that ignores all the other ones and in turn be ignored by them isn’t actually good.
