I debated answering this and decided not to. However, I think Linkara said it best (http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/linkara/at4w/36077-at4w-200th-episode) in his review of One More Day: (summarizing the point, since it's a really long review) Pretending that something doesn't exist, putting it in fan discontinuity, is just as lazy and bad as the solution they come up with in the characterization.
Could they have done this idea and done it well? Yes, absolutely, and I mentioned two examples where I felt it was done extremely well. But they didn't.
I can hate this development, think it's a terrible way to handle character development. But it happened and nothing I can do will change that.
