The fact is there was no solution that was going to please everyone, so Toei went with the one that made the most logistical sense.

Oh yeah, I totally get the logistical problems and I'm not saying Toei are being cheap or anything like that, they're clearly struggling to make everything work in this mess the damn agency caused them. I'm basically just saying that, as a fan up till now, this sucks.

(Bioman is still the most plot and character driven season for its time though and we can see in Episode 15 how the change of Yellow Four has an impact on Hikaru's development arc)

A concise report regarding this whole situation. Most of it is just recitation and streamlining, but it gets the point across for anyone who isn't immediately familiar.
