One thing about the old expanded Universe itself was that it also, at least at first, ignored certain things as well. Early reference books in the 90s, for example, largely ignored the Marvel comics, instead deferring to the newspaper strips instead (Which were a bit more consistent with OT continuity since a lot of them were written after the movies while the Marvel stuff came out when the movies were in production). This changed around the turn of the century since SW stuff was in high demand despite the rep of the prequels.
