It did NOT happen in the prime universe!
Any idiot can write a story saying this or that happened in the prime universe. You or I can do this. As far as I'm concerned, Abrams has no more authority than you or I to do this.
This is similar to James Cameron coming out and striking Terminator 3. 4 and 5 from cannon. He was not involved with those abortions and he came out and struck them down.
Gene Roddenberry is no longer around to officially do that but it's obviously something he would do if he were still here. Abrams is not Star Trek any more than Disney is Star Wars.
2. This is all you simply stating a preference sorry the company that owns the franchise says it's cannon. Your free not to like it but it's cannon
3. Roddenberry made it clear he expected trek to move beyond him and not turn him into the final word so Roddenberry isn't star trek either . And if we followed your logic then the Dominion War isn't cannon because according to his wife he would have hated it . There goes most of DS9.
From Roddenberry's own mouth . So does Gene Roddenberry have authority
Quote:There's a good chance that when I'm gone, others will come along and do so well that people will say, 'Oh, that Roddenberry. He was never this good.' But I will be pleased with that statement." - Gene Roddenberry, Los Angeles Times TV Times, article "Star Trek's New Frontier", 1993.
Quote:I would hope there are bright young people, growing up all the time, who will bring to [Star Trek] levels and areas that were beyond me, and I don't feel jealous about that at all. [...] It'll go on, without any of us, and get better and better and better, because that's the... that really is the human condition. It's to improve and improve." - Gene Roddenberry, The Star Trek Saga: From One Generation to the Next, 1988.
Quote: This is similar to James Cameron coming out and striking Terminator 3. 4 and 5 from cannon.

You do realize he praised those movies till he got backlash then he started condemning them?
