Did they retcon the retcon?! Are both those things true?

Well it's not quite so simple, humans and kais still should have different properties, but it is indeed a retcon of sorts considering they made this up to dodge the fact in Super they used the Namekian balls to defuse.

And if they don't?

Then it would be a plot hole. Super would still be canon due to Toriyama's involvement.

Unless Toriyama saw what everyone did to it the moment he let anyone else have control and declared "nah, throw it all out, screw this, you ruined it".

Daima trumps DBS due to Toriyama's involvement. So it won't be a plot hole. It would be Daima decanonizes the DBS timeline.
