No it's a canon issue too. When new stories are developed, we consider other Alien sources - we do not consider AvP.
I'm not sure what that's even supposed to mean or how that relates to the official canon. Obviously stories strictly centered on the
Alien or
Predator licenses won't be considering
AVP (even though they may reference or be connected to each other, as in the case of
Fire and Stone,
Life and Death, and
The Rage War trilogy for instance), as I'd figure that's the very purpose of the
AVP license itself to fill out that role.

Sometimes I read something here thats been covered a million times and think "Whats the point?"
He won't believe it until SM proves it and why bother? When this is like the 1000th time SM would be asked to do so. And even if he does there will be another one right behind TurokSwe.
In any case he seems to have made up his mind and I doubt anyone will sway his opinion on the matter. Even though many of us here have been through this discussion numerous times and most of his points already refuted time and again.
The reason I engage in these discussions is because I'm confident that I have a strong enough case for my stance in considering all twelve films (and any potential future films) canonical to each other and I have yet to hear a proper refutation of any of it (and referencing past discussions which I'm not aware of, and which may indeed not be appropriate or adequate, will do little to change anything). Admittedly we will all hold on to the option which we personally prefer, but I would dare say the evidence is much more in favor of the shared universe remaining intact.
