I understand making two different universes...she set up the rules for Anita over a dozen books ago, and Merry is basically a clean slate; she can establish whatever new rules she likes. That and she doesn't have to worry about Anita and Merry running into each other. There's really no need to create a single universe.
What I don't get is saying that because MG's world doesn't exist within the context of AB's, then the fae don't exist at all. I'm sorry, but fae DO exist in AB; they're just not MG fae. She's made her bed, now she has to lie in it.
...isn't fleshing out your world...usually a good thing?
Well, to be fair, she does flesh out both worlds...she just contradicts herself with each new book, and usually has contradictory information within individual books.
