You might feel that way, but the comic book was published. At worst, it is an alternate universe, but they printed it, so it happened(and within the context of the story, it did seem to be 616, circa the Uncanny Relaunch(pre-Age of X-Man)).
And for the record, I loved Ororo and Nathan's will they/won't they period in the 90's. I would have liked to see an actual romance develop out of that. So while Major X was pretty crappy, I'm not against it on principal like some seem to be.
