I forgot to add but this theory also explains the whole "erm Post-Canon is meant to be "Not Canon" but... Hussie is involved????" thing that often bugs people. Of course an original product will always be met with some degree of canon acceptance that a fanwork could never, regardless of if the author is directly involved or not. Beyond Canon's message in that sense would be telling people "hey you should be making Homestuck too because you don't need to be officially licensed for it to matter."
