I hope they don't make it cannon. A lot of stuff from C0DA and the Lover Letter is in ESO. Most of what MK writes out of game ends up in games at some point eventually. And the gods still exist so Sheogorath and dragons and such are still around. Akatosh and Talos are seen at Jubal's bachelor party. The Jill are seen in the 9th Era so the dov are probably still around. Magic still exists because the sun is still around.

Also, we don't actually know if it was the Thalmor's doing that Numidium came back and NOPED Nirn. The Thalmor wins in that their goal in unmaking Mundus happens, but they don't really win cuz they're gone.
