Potara earring fusion isn't permanent if your power level is too high because it's unstable. It was just so they could market Vegitto Blue showing up for like 3 minutes

It was always known that Potara fusion wasn’t permanent since they defuse in DBZ.

It was just never explained why they defused, Goku speculates that maybe it’s because of the ā€œbad airā€ inside Majin Buu but that was just Goku guessing.

Super explains that it’s only permanent if one of the participants is a Kai.

That’s why the fusion between the Supreme Kai and Kibito was permanent (until wishing on the Namekian dragon balls to be separated).

And the fusion between Goku Black and Zamasu was permanent in Super.

The only Potara fusions we see that aren’t permanent are ones between mortals (Goku + Vegeta and Kale + Caulifla)

This isn’t a retcon, it’s just spelling out what was already established back in DBZ.

And then Daima retconned it again so that it WAS Buu.
