We're not picking and choosing, that's how it is. 343i decided that, not us. Although it is obvious that Odd One Out is non-canon. And the combat animations in anime are [almost] always unrealistic.
Again, Halo 4 will tell.
I pose this question for you. Do you really think they're gonna kill Cortana? I'll tell you what, if they do, it will be a sure fire sign that the creation of 343 Industries was a bad idea and the Halo Universe will go the way of Star Trek and Star Wars before it.
Nobody said anything about killing her, Rampancy is just a state of madness which can be overcame and turned into Metastability just like Mendicant Bias did.
Again, Cortana is a very unique character, we also have to bring into account that she knows more than any A.I. ever has. The process of becoming rampant occurs when the A.I. realizes the extent of their existence and it drives them insane to know that they are essentially data miners that have no real purpose beyond that.
However, Cortana has obtained all of the combined knowledge of the Humanity (Through ONI), the Covenant (Through High Charity), the Gravemind (Through Possession), and even the Forerunners (through Installation 04,04B,05, and The Ark). While at one point this may have been a problem for Cortana's sanity, she has something the other A.I. don't; Master Chief.
Master Chief was her check when she first started to get "hyper" on Installation 04 and again when he saved her from the Gravemind. Master Chief is the voice of reason when Cortana begins to become restless. You see this in game when Cortana become weary of enemies and Mater Chief stays calm.
I think that is why Cortana was able to go through all she did. Because the Chief was always there to keep his promises.
