Maul IS dead.
>who at Nu-Lucasfilm has a hard-on for Maul
It was pretty obvious that this was gonna be the next show at one point. They need to connect the end of TCW/Solo/Rebels. Maul being a crime lord and having a version of Darth Talon as his apprentice is an old idea that Lucas was interested in, so this is it.
