AT's storylines in DBO and his storyboards for Super completely contradict GT so it can't be considered canon anyways.
If you don't like DBO and Super and if you like GT you can consider it the canonical sequal with Super and DBO being non canon.
Word of God (Creator's Canon) > Fan's Headcannon

GT can be considered "canon" to it's own continuity and could be argued as being a secondary anime canon based on Toriyama's opinion of it until DBO and Super. Nowadays, however, only the former is able to stand in regards to it, with it being pretty clear it no longer exists within the continuity Toriyama's establishing.

Canon and non canon discussions are bullshit IMO. I just take Pre Z Manga, Kai, DBS Anime and TV Specials for Bardock and Trunks on my headcanon, but if someone is talking about the original manga or the anime, i'll talk about the original manga or the anime.

1. I said why the Kanzenban is canon now.

2. Destroying character development is subjective

3. Marvel, DC, Star Wars, other animes, all use the same standards that are being used for DB

4. Super is said to be canon. Since they overwrite BoG and RoF, those are not canon anymore. They were retconned.

5. GT was never canon. AT doesn't consider it canon for himself. He said fans may, but I am using his own canon because it is more important than what I want. I would not make GT canon anyway.

1. You never actually managed to prove it.

2. It did, Vegeta's great speech at the end of the Buu saga is destroyed by it.

3. I'm referring to them being different in sense of canonicity, I.E Marvel, DC, and Star-wars all have clear cut canon.

4. Super is the official sequal, nothing about it being forced upon you as the one true canonical sequal, and even then you can still chose to have BOG and ROF over it.

5. GT is canon, at most it was considered a grand side story, and you are saying what you consider to be canon. You are only further proving my point on the matter.

1. I proved it

2. It ruined it for you. Not me. Even if it did, it would not stop it being canon

3. And what of other anime series?

4. People can choose anything, it doesn't make their canon the true canon. Super is true canon.

5. Reread my 5.
