Ant Man and The Wasp Quantumania can still bring SOMETHING to the MCU in the long run
Even though the movie wasn't very good and considering the fact that the actor who plays Kang is arrested so they can't even use his story anymore, they might still be able to salvage some things from the movie for the MCU overall like Brave New World did with Eternals. Things like: Cassie having an Antman suit and being a hero, the knowledge about the multiverse they learned from Kang, even the new ants that were created. Even if it wasn't the best, they can still bring a little value to the table if they're smart.

I don't get the hate anyway, it's more entertaining then New World Order or F4.
If one thing gets decanonized, nothing can be trusted to be canon. If you thought people’s faith in the MCU was shaky now, it definitely won’t be there if people know any project rated lesser can just be handwaved, turning the MCU into only smash hits or utter bombs.
Trust your projects, and the audience will trust it eventually too, just like what happened to the Infinity Saga and how any of its weaker points are largely ignored or forgotten/forgiven.
Instead of recasting Kang they caved to people who obviously didn't understand the concept of the character (eg. "Ant-Man beat Kang" => No he didn't,... he beat a teeny weeny nerfed variant, there's literally 1000s of him left with better tech which are shown in the same movie?).
Sticking with that storyline would've made it more clear and perhaps the people that screamed "Ant-Man beat Kang" would go back and go "woah, I was way off".
Now they pivot and use Doom as a replacement villain and cast RDJ as a shortcut so they don't have to build up the replacement-villain.
That's not a fact either, it's my opinion.
Hide from it instead and delist it as a marvel movie in any sequence.
Making it important will mean people will have to go watch that shitshow to fully understand what’s going on. Why put anyone through that torture?
