KK hate is just the same trick the fandom pulls with George. If they like something, people say "Oh, thank god (other creator) was able to save this from George" Whereas if they don't like something, the fandom goes "Dammit George, why did you have so much control." It's a scummy trick to avoid crediting him with anything, it's where this idea that his work was 'saved in the edit' comes from.

KK gets the same, blamed for the Sequels people dislike, but Mandalorian and TCW get credited to Dave and John, because people have to find a way to blame her for one thing but not credit her with the things they like.
