That has nothing to do with canon. That's just disliking how X was accomplished.
Fall of Reach was perfectly fine. Humans protected Reach with SMACs until the Covenant infiltrated form the north and knocked out the plants that powered the the SMACs.
If anything, Halo: Reach doesn't make sense. The Covenant setting up camps on Reach? How the hell did that go unnoticed?
And where were the critical space battles that defined the fate of Reach?
Okay, answer these things.
A: Dropships were launched to the poles. UNSC fired and destroyed a massive chunk of them.
B: Within 2-3 hours, those remaining dropships deployed overwhelming forces successfully and destroyed the HEAVIEST guarded locations on Reach (High command, and the generators).
C: UNSC Air Force did not do a thing to stop them, those skyhawks with 4 50mm cannons? Stayed landed at base apparently.
D: I've heard (from a book supporter no less) a spirit going max in atmosphere speed would take roughly 7 hours to travel from the pole to the equator.
Oh, and apparently there was no AA guns on Reach either.
