No, it's the right way to look at things.
As a fan of most Metroid games, I really REALLY would rather Metroid die, than become something other than what it is.
There's no reason to continue a series like Metroid past the point of grace.
If the people want something like Metroid, but with all these shitty new elements in it, they could just make a new series.
(games like Destiny, Subnautica, and No Man's Sky essentially are this already - a lot of the same surface elements from Metroid Prime but much much shittier design and gameplay. On the 2D side of things you have shitgamez like Silk Song. If Metroid ends as a series, that opens room for something new to take its place)

I would rather they stop making Metroid games than try to force Metroid to be something un-Metroid.
