If TIDH were valid in its entirety, it would change twelve previously-invalid comics to valid. This means that those twelve comics would be validated by a connection to a later story, a state we have tended to avoid in the past. Erm, so? It's not the end of the world. And we've done it before with the David Warner Unbound audios (of course, we've since declared that whole series valid, but my point still stands). Retroactive validity is a thing sometimes.
