The way the halo community acts I'd imagine it was liberating to get away from it. Despite Destiny sharing a lot of similarities with halo, Reach proved that any "new" things they wanted to do or interesting new directions they wanted to explore would not have been possible and I'm sure they knew this even after halo 3. If half the new stuff they included in Destiny was in a halo game the community would have ripped them apart even worse so than how people are ripping Destiny apart now.
