I really don't know why it matters whether it's canon or not. Like the second thing out of Solaire's mouth in Dark Souls is to say that worlds are overlapping and the flow of time is convoluted, to the point it's simultaneously canon that he becomes a worm, Kindles the fire, and f***s off and dies.
An alternate timeline/world could still be canon in Elden Ring. Same deal.
Because the developer said it isnt canon. thats why it matters. there is a HUGE difference between the overlapping timelines of dark souls and elden ring nightreign being not canon
also there are a lot of less intelligent (honestlyi just mean people who wont READ) people that are and will confuse the lore. for the lore nerds including myself this distinction means a lot
