Not gonna lie, the "canon" concept was pretty alien to me some months ago. so i'll try to see if i'm getting it correctly :
Basically, is considered "canon" anything put into a medium by their author, am I correct ? Or are there any more than that ?
If it's only what I stated, then the face that things "makes sense" has nothing to do with the fact something is canon.
But that doesn't remove the fact that it doesn't make sense to fit "X game" content into "Y game" if they are unrelated whatsoever.

I'm happy that some (lots of) people are enjoying the raid.
I don't because for me this collab has cut main FF-related content to replace it with non-FF related content.

I'm "happy" it's over and done. and hope we'll never see any more of this Nier... it has been sufficiently promoted with a whole 3-part raid in an expansion.
Let's go back to "collab as side content".
