Filoni is definitely a Star Wars fan. His show Rebels was highly influenced by his D6 Star Wars games. I understand not liking what he has added to setting, but he is bringing in his head canon because he is a fan.That wasn't my intention. Filoni has no care about Star Wars beyond what he can use his Clone Wars stuff, Ahsoka, the Mandalorian clans he created, the Dark Saber BS, for. He has no care about canon or other thing someone who does respect the material would look at.
Also, Favreau himself admitted that Mando was always going to lead to the First Order, which most Star Wars watchers are not fans of, back in an Entertainment Weekly (EW) interview they had in 2019.
As for Clone Wars, that's a product of Lucasfilm from when Lucas was still in charge, and he had regular input into it. It's not a show I ever got into, but it's as canon as anything in Star Wars, certainly more than the EU novels.
