The fact that we're even debating which director screwed up the continuity between the 2 movies shows how bad it is. Blame JJ, blame Rian, either way it's horrible as a fan who's watching a trilogy and expects a coherent story. I shouldn't have to sit here wondering which director messed up.

Maybe blame Disney for putting it in the hands of 2 very different directors who apparently don't communicate with each other?
At least if they gave the whole trilogy to the same guy, it may have functioned as a trilogy.
The thing is that this sounds a little too 'Amateur Hour' for Disney's normal modus operandi which tends to make me wonder if something else is going on.

A lot of what went down in this movie really does lead me to believe that they're basically trying to wipe the slate clean and move along.

We've got a powerful Force user who is a nobody, they've ditched Han and Luke, we got a new villain that an even newer (albeit conflicted) villain killed, they're ticking off a lot of boxes.
