It's one thing to subvert everything that your fanbase loves about a franchise, but if you don't give the audience any narrative payoff for doing so don't be surprised when they come to burn your house down.

Precisely. RoS turned TLJ into a mistake. A different sequel could have paid things off. Maybe.
Everything they'd said publicly kinda made it seem like they had no actual plan for how to follow up TLJ.

That said, I've never been a big Star Wars fan and not super invested either way.
