The animus was an interesting idea, but I'm allergic to grand conspiracy stories that try to tie every historically significant event and person and every unsolved mystery together. Especially since 99% of the time they don't actually have a plan how to tie it all together and just drop these mystery breadcrumbs to make it look cool. Unlocking eagle vision for desmond at the end of AC1 and seeing the walls of your cell worked as a oh shit moment.
But after 3 the desmond arc was done and they shouldve dropped it then. I don't think anyone would've complained. They wouldn't drop any threads and leave fans pissed off. I think they kept it since they just were ordered to make more AC with minimal changes. Maybe removing the animus would kill hte golden goose, so don't touch it.
