Exactly. It's not like there can only be one true, definitive, "canonical" version of any classic character or story. And you're not doing Holmes or Watson any favors by treating them as a sacred cows.
Granted, the new
Sherlock is a tough act to follow, but there may be room for yet another revisionist take on Holmes.
