I half agree.
I do think weird and obscure properties are what moves things forward- fresh ideas and new tales are great.
I do believe, however, that Disney shoud choose their first mutants projects more carefully, though. Their first few mutant choices will set the bar and expectations - so I can understand a desire for their first original mutant products to be more mass consumable. After that, more obscure products would be very welcomed. In other words, for the first animated property and proper xmen film I’d prefer it be played safe.
Just my 2 cents.
