He didn't reject change outright, he just suggested that this change was more 'blatant' than previous examples you cited, and thus more jarring.
Personally I haven't seen anything too jarring yet, it will depend on how the show frames the change. If Klingons are bald and different because they are aboriginal, and most Klingons are mixed race, then that would be fine with me. If however, they always looked like this and just cant grow hair at all, under any circumstance, that would jar quite badly with decades of Klingons with long flowing viking locks - including a clone of Kahless from the 9th century A.D. or whenever - and a story of how he 'plunged his locks into a volcano and forged the first bat'leth', etc - and mostly because its unnecessary to be so extreme in their retcon and they would look fine with hair.
Other than that, I care far more about the substance of the show.
As long as they are entertaining and interesting, I can still enjoy the various Trek spinoffs as their own separate thing loosely based on Star Trek, even though they aren't true Star Trek to me. TOS still stands on its own, and it isn't undermined by the fact that the spinoffs aren't consistent with it.

2017-2005 = 12. 12 years.
Presumably Enterprise doesn't count for similar reasons?
It's been 12 years, and it is a bit annoying when fans have their own lists of what is canon or not and kind of expect others to adhere to that.... by any objective mean, ENT ended in 2005, that makes it a 12 year gap, period.
Exactly.
May 2005 to September 2017 is roughly 12 years, you really need to learn to count.
Um, it's been 43 years. The LAST time we actually saw STAR TREK on TV was 1974 with The Animated Series.
mean we're talking STAR TREK on TV - not the retconned Berman/Braga era TNG/DS9/VOY/ENT crap. GET IT RIGHT!
None of you are right. It's been 48. The last time Star Trek was new on TV was 1969. No bloody TAS, TNG, DS9, VOY or ENT. Dang! People don't know nothin'!Um, it's been 43 years. The LAST time we actually saw STAR TREK on TV was 1974 with The Animated Series.

1.714 dog years since ENT last aired.Anyone going to try and work it out in dog years now?
Just for clarity sake, are you serious or joking?
Now you went and did it.
I'm serious that I do not consider Enterprise or JJTrek to be Star Trek. So while for the rest of you it may be only 12 years since the last Star Trek TV show. For me it has been 16 years. And 15 years since that last Star Trek film.
You're never going to find a Trek series more true to it's roots than Star Trek Continues, so... 3 weeks.
