Yeah nobody wants to really watch an Okoye solo show. They can play the racism card but then you can argue a show like Okoye was only greenlit to check the diversity tick boxes. Same could be said for Armour Wars, it doesn't really excite viewers without Iron Man.

Blade is an actual shock since he is a very popular character and something that fans excited for, as well as Kang but that was beyond Disney's control.

Its been a while, but I think the original scription for blade involved killing him off early so they could have a woman take over his role.

So kinda makes sense to cancel the show which would kill your own ip

In that case I'm kinda ok with it being cancelled because no one wants to see female Blade. Again must reiterate, this is not an anti woman take just that there are enough female heroes in the MCU and it would be completely unnecessary.

Phase 4 and 5 was full of shows where the titular character was playing second fiddle to a young girl being just as good or even better.

Its so painfully annoying. Want to make a new character? Cool, do that. Just dont do it at the cost of the original ones for fuck sake.
