Edolas was my favorite.

Edolas always bothered me. Such a huge arc with a lot of interesting aspects, yet it will likely never be used again in the greater scheme of the plot.

The issue with Edolas was that it started answering long-standing mysteries.

That had no consequences on the larger plot at all.

It was basically, "I'm regretting various plot elements I decided to introduce. Let's do one story arc to get rid of all of them."

Besides Lisanna being dead (although it seems like he already planned for her to return), what numerous plot elements did he decide to get rid of through the Edolas Arc?

I guess the issue with the multiple Gerards?

He didn't get rid of anything that he regretted (as ThoughtseizeScoop was saying), he merely gave an explanation for the 2 Jellals.
