The boss walks in, there's someone on the phone for you:

Phone: "Hi, I'm the leader person behind that book/television/film franchise you complain about online and gee-whiz, you're right! We want you to run things from here on out."
You: "Do I get supreme retcon powers?"
Phone: "Of course! We'll even retroactively edit in your changes!"

Huh, that was easy. What are you changing?

Give Voyager one final, long episode with a proper sendoff (instead of the half-assed one they did), where we can see how the characters actually ended up in the coming years. With an epic orchestral soundtrack, at least one really good space battle scene and a lot of pathos, it deserves it! ST: Picard is also considered non-canon (the first two seasons have been a shitshow and the third was just nostalgia-bait anyway). So nothing that happened to Seven of Nine in that plotline ever officially happened and the final Voyager episode can utilize some talented writers to make it good.

...and also delete the episode where some crew members become animals and bang each other, because excuse me, what the fuck was that?
