It means one of the quarters of the Marketplace Eternal in the Outlands is gone, several Abyssal layers and realms throughout the Outer Planes are gone, Krynnish expatriates like Torvald the dwarf and Factol Ambar of the Athar have their origins retconned, and it means one of the three parts of the Radiant Triangle in the Spelljammer setting are gone. It means the events of the Forgotten Realms novel Tymora's Luck didn't happen, since kender, Sirrion, and Paladine/Fizban were fundamental to it.By contrast, keeping Krynn in the Great Wheel doesn't hurt Krynn at all. It's fine that the cosmology looks different from inside looking out than it does from outside looking in - it doesn't mean the Krynnish are stupid or ignorant, only that their perspective is different.It's also fine to say that in a Dragonlance campaign Krynn is seperate, while in a Planescape, Ravenloft, Spelljammer, or Forgotten Realms campaign it's integrated; different campaigns have different needs, and there's no reason to cut off the ease of other adventures just because one personally likes one type more.Which might be basically what you were saying - go with the guys writing the specific setting. In a Spelljammer campaign, you might go with the guys who wrote that setting said, while in a Dragonlance campaign, go with what those guys said. In Hordes of the Abyss, go with what the guy writing that said.</blockquote>
