I agree with sweetd, anytime they hack up pieces of the x mythos to package and ship to other franchises I’m very concerned, no matter how played out they’ve become. The Phoenix needs to migrate south for awhile (I couldn’t resist) but it should ultimately always come home to us.

Do y'all feel the same about Weapon X? (See: Weapon H)

I get what y'all are saying. It's a fine point. And, TBH, I doubt the X-Men are done with the Phoenix Force - I wouldn't be surprised if it just goes to someone like Deathbird. (Not to mention all the adaptations of the DPS we'll always get.)
But. BUT. I'm still happy to get a reprieve from the damn bird.

The Phoenix is definitely an overused concept at this point. It was fine in Morrison where it was barely touched upon beyond just being a part of Jean Grey's character growth, and it was okay during the Messiah Trilogy, but AvX just completely ruined it. Ever since then it's started appearing way too frequently and has been reduced to just another villain (Jeen hitting it with a pile driver will forever be the lowest moment in Phoenix history). It needs to go away for a decade or so, and only be brought back by someone with a clear vision of what the Phoenix should be.

Between this and Skidsgate I might be off the Rosenberg train. X-Fact..uh... New Mutants is probably the 3rd strike.

Besides <3 Skids, it's one of my bigger peeves that Marvel can't seem to resist: Killing a character to artificially raise the stakes. I'm less optimistic about New Mutants, as well.

Skids was recently killed in a car bomb(?) during a story for noted mutant-hating flatscan Clint Barton and Bucky - Tales of Suspense #100, written by Rosenberg.

I thought they recovered but didn’t show the body?

You are correct, acushla.
I'll continue reading Redhead Resurrection with Her Love Interests That Define Her no2 by Mutiehater just for Foreman and his comedic faces.
