People weren't whining, they were pissed and for good reason. It doesn't prove that the creators pander it proves that they listen to what fans have to say. They're sick of Arrow getting nothing but hate and they like Katie and they can still tell stories with Laurel so why not? It's not hurting anyone or any story it doesn't change anything. Earth-1 Laurel is still dead and she's going to stay that way.
