Endymion is a retcon, and yes we should've seen it otherwise, but it existing in no way breaks the story in any sense.

That's why I said taken as an independant story (I should have said side story), like the stories of ToAru SP, it is good. It doesn't break the story, but in the grand scheme of things, it is irrelevant. My bad if I expressed myself poorly there.

Thanks for the helpful clarification.
