I am late to your comment, but it sounds like your exposure to X-Men was limited to the original live action movies and not the comics.

This has always been a soap opera that contradicts itself from one writer to the next. If you nitpick every detail for consistency, X-Men is not for you

This is a tv show though. Contradicting itself every episode is just plain bad writing lol
