I doubt many people under 30 have seen all of them and most folks skipped the Lazenby Bond film. Hell it was 50 years ago.
Was I wrong?

Also, the Craig Bond's whole arc comes from his love of Vesper Lynd. Her shadow has never left. It doesn't seem a stretch that he would settle down with somneone after finally getting over her death.
And that's why Spectre should've been Craig's last bond movie. They wrote themselves into a corner with the end of that movie and the only way out was to have yet another movie where Bond is either retired or rogue and deals with issues from his past. It also explains why they has so many pre-production issues related to the script.
As someone who thinks Casino Royale is arguably the best Bond film of all time, I think a lot of people are ready for Bond to be Bond again because they completely misread what made that a great movie. It was great that they made Bond a little more human, established some continuity (in a lazy way), and made Bond where he was not just a one liner machine that Brosnan basically was at the end of Die Another Day. However, it would've been great to see a Craig's Bond movie where he just get sent on a stand alone mission that has no relation to the past and saves the day.
Not arguing with you because you're correct that Vesper still lingers, but the whole point of the ending of Quantum of Solace was that he "moved on from Vesper." It was inevitable that the producers were going to overreact to #MeToo.

Why don't we just remove James Bond from any future Bond movies too while we are at it

Things are simply not allowed to appeal to men anymore. Every single thing that has a primarily male base is being forced to change because masculinity has been deemed a disease that needs curing.
Whether it be movie franchises, video games, sports, pro wrestling, comic books EVERYTHING must be feminized, the people doing this are basically religious extremists.
This is an intentional subversion.
Bravo.

“Strong women” have been in the Bond franchise for decades. This is just marketing to the SJWs.

Will Bond be fighting climate change in the upcoming movie?
After he's finished fighting toxic masculinity, yes.

Yep. I guarantee you that every Bond Girl from the last few decades gave some interview where she said a variation of “My character isn’t your typical Bond Girl. She’s Strong/Independent/Resourceful/Etc.”....including Denise Richards

I remember Denise Richards pulling this on Jay Leno. Drew Carey was sitting next to her laughing. She asked "What are you laughing at?"
Carey replied "You're a nuclear scientist? A nuclear scientist name Christmas Jones?"
Everyone laughed. Richards didn't see the humor in it.

He did once before, but they killed her right after the wedding.

Game of Thrones fans should recognize the Bond girl (Tracy) from the Lazenby Bond film.

I prefer to remember her as my first love Emma Peel on The Avengers. One of my granddaughters was indirectly and somewhat unwittingly named Emma because of her and me always having the girls watch Avenger reruns with me when they were growing up (because I wanted all of my daughters to be strong independent women). My youngest daughter loved the name and subsequently name her first daughter Emma.

Bond tries his usual seduction techniques but they fail miserably. It’s very funny.
I'm sure it was a real hoot. About as funny as the all woman remake of ghostbusters...
I thought we were finished with feminazi-ism in movies. For an industry built on objectifying women and secret pedophiles, Hollywood sure is trying to do their best to distract away from their own misdeeds by virtue signaling to the world.
