STO is trapped in a Temporal Anomaly.
We have 10 years of events occurring within 2 in game years.
10 Christmases (Qmases?), 9 Anniversiers/First Contact Days, a bunch of wars, ect..., all some how occurring in a two year span (actual given that we aren't in 2411 yet more like a year and a half or something).
So clearly STO is trapped in a Temporal Anamoly .
On a more serious note STO is due for another retcon to its timeline. Its not the first serious unexplained retcon, far from it.
It would allow STOs timeline to make more sense. It would allow it to fit better with Picard, and it would allow it explain how the Odysessy Class is now appearing 25 years before in Picard Comic/TV show, then it does in STO.
The beauty of STO is you can blame it all on time travel. Or Q. Or invaders from another universe. Or the Prophets/Pahwraiths of Bajor.
But this would fix what is increasingly becoming a weird problem for STO and Star Trek in general given Admiral Kurtzmen's foundness for tying the Star Trek multimedia empire together.

As well as a way to bump that all important post count number.
Worked, too, didn't it?
They could be called skirmishes or even minor brushwars, but they are not all out efforts like the other four and could be happening concurrently with small local fleets.
I'd also agree with your analysis, still the original timeline should have seen 2-3 years added, especially given the 10 years involved in making the timeline now.
"Q did it!"
What CBS says goes even if they sound like blithering idiots or it reminds you of the Steinbrenner/Billy Martin firings/rehirings/firings/rehirings.
Only they may speak the words of the E'ed Plebnista.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.
That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
But later Sulu says:
'Ship's log. Lieutenant Sulu recording. I am holding the Enterprise in orbit about planet Sigma Draconis Seven...'
So they were beamed down to the wrong planet that couldn't support their life. RIP.
If they can't get stuff right within their own context, one could easily maintain that coordination between different media types by disparate people can certainly be possible and still be canon especially given time differentials.

CBS doesn't need to do that, since all IPs are owned by them. Just saying...
It's not as if they ever had problems with remembering which planet is which, even into the movies....
"Khaaaaan! Khaaaaaan! Khaaaaaaaaan!"
I think a fan theory is that Chekov was the guy who didn't let Khan use the bathroom or something silly like that.
Anyways... The IP holders have ultimate power to say what is canon and what is not. And the Powers That Be have declared those tie-in comics canon. Realistically... that means end of discussion.
Doesn't stop it, but it still...
Trying to talk Trek canon you need a bachelor's degree in temporal physics and timelines

Not exactly. Because Cryptic made the Oddysey they own some rights to it even though it's a star trek ship. Copyright is very convoluted, but this is one of the reasons we don't have trek ships from other games. Because thos other developers own those ships, even though CBS owns the ip
My character Tsin'xing
The License of the IP to Cryptic...is a renter. Anything made during that time, goes to CBS/Paramount automatically. If the former decides to end said renting. Everything goes back to that Renter.
As for the Ships, you are correct...the license divided existed between Paramount and CBS was terrible, but it was what it was back then. The merger now *completed on Dec 4 2019*, ends that.
