I hear you. He's mentioned that the trinity is still the most important part of this. I think he just wants more time away from the movies of the DCEU in order to clear confusion and create separation.
This also isn't gonna be a universe that's following MCU's style (even though it didn't really start out with the heavy hitters initially) It's more about creating a bunch of great movies / tv shows / games that are all within the same universe but that you don't have to watch each one to follow the grand story.
I think that gives this universe more freedom and time to create & develop those more known character's stories without a need to rush to put something out to continue this "grand story" and it suffering in quality if that makes sense.
I'm sure Gunn has a plan to eventually have the Justice League and face a Darkseid or something but he does not want to get too ahead of himself either. He understands the strengths and weaknesses of the MCU and wants to make something different that can still quench the thirst of comic book movie lovers.
When you put it this way I can see where you’re coming from
I worry James doesn’t have the grand vision for something like a DC cinematic universe because of is interest/more concern for niche projects
I think he’s already said they’re not building up to anything.
There will be no infinity stone/Thanos type story.

I like that idea but then what does it mean for creating the Chapter 1 Gods and Monsters?
Wow this was a solid episode. Much better than the last one. Gunn wasn't kidding when he said this show goes dark.
Big chance this means nothing but how would y’all feel about her back as Canary?

james gunn is an expert on the source material
the source material: 

Well.. yeah.
Literally why Gunn is doing Clayface and Dynamic Duo with Matt
The Cast of the DCU (So Far)
Love the ambition but we already have a DCU Batman
My immediate thought when seeing this is that Supergirl/lobo hentai comic
