Well, "crappy" as season five may have been (depending on who you ask), one reason I don't like the idea of rejecting the later seasons is you have cherry-pick what to reject. Some things in the later seasons make sense. In fact, some of it explains things that weren't explained in the earlier seasons.

Here's my favorite example. In the first episode of season three, Aisha and a mermaid traveled from Magix to Andros through the ocean. How did they do it? Rainbow didn't tell us back then.

Fast forward to season five. We learn there's a system of portals that connect all the realms' oceans together. There you go. But you have to accept that part of season five for that moment in season three to make sense. But as soon as you accept something in season five, you're admitting season five happened.

Here's another example for Tecna X Timmy fans. He met her parents in season six. You could say, "Well, it would have happened eventually."

Would it? Are we sure these couples (besides Bloom and Sky) will all end up together at the end of the series? Season six confirmed Tecna and Timmy had this moment in their relationship. There's nothing controversial or contradictory about that episode, so why shouldn't it be allowed to be part of the canon?

Do you see what I mean? Rejecting the newer seasons means rejecting all the acceptable moments, too. But cherry-picking to create your own canon (so to speak) is hypocritical.
