    I'm surprised it took this long to retcon after the Disney purchase. Like, you'd think they would change it to avoid being the company that tricks children into googling "jizz."

    Anything made after Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure is non-canon as far as I'm concerned

    This doesn't seem like a retcon, if anything that's a pretty natural worldbuilding development, have something in-universe receive a name change because humans (or whatever they are) keep snickering whenever Joe Alien called it 'Jizz'

    But that being said, you do not, under any circumstances, 'gotta hand it to' the committees that write Star Wars extruded product

    Don't worry. I looked it up and this new term has been used for 8 years already. Perhaps they are going to be moving away from "jizz" (cringe to do so) but I don't think they are retconning it.

        Okay so I made a mistake - jatz is actually 29 years old. Wookieepedia has canon and legends sections for both jizz and jatz. Maybe jizz being a nickname for jatz is a retcon, but both are still canon terms.

    This is like 17th century Shakespeare rewrites where Juliet slips with the dagger, Romeo wakes up, and they do an entertaining jig.
