So many Klingons, and still no raktajino.

Memory Alpha and Ex Astris Scientia both treated the Klingons as consistent from TMP through ENT.

Do they, though?

It wasn’t until the deleted scenes from Into Darkness came out that the design was actually changed

The Klingon redesign from "Into Darkness" isn't just in the movie proper, it's in the trailer, Bud.

Do they though?

yes, they do

He literally groups them into TOS, TMP, Into Darkness, and DIS. By your logic, the table on the linked EAS page should have at least 7 distinct columns instead of the listed 4.

He does that in service of his bizarre insistence that Disco is not part of the prime timeline.

He technically acknowledges that it's the same timeline but a "visually rebooted"universe, at least elsewhere on the site. There used to be stuff on his website about the STID Klingons pre-Disco too. I've been visiting it for 13 years.

I don't see what's so bizarre about it, it's pretty much impossible to believe TOS unfolded as shown without the visual reboot conceit.
