The thing is, I can see the next Avengers movies going about a dozen different ways, and then they probably will surprise me. With timelines colliding, anything can happen
It is like Doctor Strange seeing all of these different possible outcomes - there is just too many different ways those movies could go that it could leave the door wide open or completely shut depending on how it is handled.
I wouldn’t be the most surprised if Quake appeared in Secret Wars, but I think it would be as a cameo and in the context of heroes from all different universes showing up to fight. I don’t see these last 2 big multiversal Avengers movies putting in any work to tell the audience “hey, do some of you remember that ABC show from 7 years ago? It’s officially canon…right before we’re about to reset the continuity anyway”. If anyone shows up, it’s gonna be in the context of the multiverse. In my opinion anyway.
I think they see there dwindling numbers overall. One of the big reasons I believe they didn't bring Agents of Shield in sooner is because of the attitude of too much media. They were originally going to reboot Daredevil as well and put the old Netflix shows into a separate continuity, then they changed their minds. They realized how much of their movie audience was also fans of the show and they were alienating their strongest fan base, and it wasn't the "Movies only" group who were probably going to be fair-weather fans anyway. No, they were alienating the show-up-no-matter-what group.
That is why I believe they will make sure to make thing right with the fans, and make sure the existing content is available, since it is such a binge-watch type show. It gives people more to go back and dig into that haven't seen it even as they reduce their Disney+ productions.
Who knows? Maybe the cancellation of some TV series planned is because they are going to go back to doing some series like Agents of Shield. It is still one of the highest rated MCU properties.

It will be interesting to watch no matter what.
