Filoni is perpetually stuck in the giddy fanboy mode of Star Wars enjoyer, which just honestly drives the slop even worse
Star Wars is best when it's basically a generic template to put a story into: Mandalorian season 1 is just a generic gunslinger western with a Star Wars framework, Andor is a generic space heist film, etc
His obsession with the Jedi being the ultimate good and his OC that he definitely has been writing fanfic about long before he became a showrunner is just fucking awful. The only good moment in Ahsoka's character story was her leaving the Jedi order after they fucked her over - everything else sucks
The Filoniverse is all the worst excesses of the SW Expanded universe stuff, just even less interesting.
Like at least when Kyle Katarn or Dash Rendar randomly show up in a SW novel it was at least kinda endearing if just as creatively bankrupt

The fact that Tony Gilroy doesn't give a fuck about Star Wars definitely contributed to Andor's success lol
