I think it's gizmodo's way of reconciling the retcons. But he really didn't even adopt them. He claimed he was the father, no one did a DNA test. There was no adoption because they were fully grown adults by then.
In X-Factor he just considers himself still their father. Which isn't really adoption either. Just more like when people aren't biologically related but consider themselves family.
Love is for souls, not bodies.
Bud they were in pure pain to the point of begging for death.They were playing roles, they weren't actually happy.And being miserable seems pretty understandable since they were separated from their families and in pure pain.
That being said kicking them out or just taking the Hex elsewhere if that's a possibility(since all those people's lives are in Westview ) would be a better choice.Or better yet just do what she did with Agatha.No Hex required to keep her as the nosy neighbor.
Well given it is called the Trial of Magneto, I'm not surprised. Wanda is just a plot device for the story (again), given that Magneto is one of Krakoa's leaders and seen as a hero on the Island, it will probably focus on how this will affect people's perceptions of him.

Why would Wanda CARE??? Seriously why would she care???
She does not have to interact with them at all.
Because they don't care about the damage they have done to Wakanda.
If editorial does not view her as a mutant-why have this story? There is no logical to it.
Marvel is just wasting a mini series slot that could have gone to ANY solo X-Men, Inhuman, Wanda or others who don't have one.
Agreed, the minimum I will accept is the closure of this long chapter for Wanda leading to her finally being allowed to play part in her own story. I've given up any expectation that this will explore Wanda as a character other than as a device or fixture in the narrative of other characters. Too much of what has been stated so far situates the story as a "trial" or crucible for Magneto and a point of conflict for how others perceive Wanda.
I'll be happily surprised if this adds to her story in any way, providing her choice, voice, and agency within the story. But I'm wholly expecting that this will be about her, but not involve her in any significant capacity. The conflict will revolve and resolve itself around the actions of other characters and she'll be discussed but take no action. All in all, if this story needs to play out in order for her to shed the BS that has dragged her down for the last 20 years then so be it, I'll wait it out. But if she is merely used as a pawn, again, for cheap drama or the dead-horse bogeyman trope continues at the close of this story, then Marvel will have a lot to answer for.
The alt-covers have been pretty.
