Because the story doesn't matter or you see it as meaningless, and it's just about making money. That's the pragmatic part for revising modern content to make it appealing to your target audience. Introduce multiverse excuse, blam, previous discrepancies be damned. Let the writers sort that crap out.
When you're proselytizing to a group of warriors about your resurrected messiah your approach may be different. Can't say for sure, never tried anything like that.

“Target audience?” LOTR is already one of the most widely circulated stories of all time. It is translated into more languages than most other stories are
What is this target audience? Black people? Yes black nerds exist and they probably already liked Aragorn before he was black. Very few black non-nerds are going to become into LOTR because some producer decided to shoehorn in a black Aragorn or black dwarves
So by target audience you must mean millennials. But really we are talking about millennials who think inclusion and diversity are the highest priority in life. That’s 50% of millennials. The other 50%, the GOP side, really don’t give a shit, they just want a good story
So you’ve actually cut your “target audience” in half, which is going to happen anytime you get political, in any business medium. It’s a BAD business decision IMO
