The concept of removing Dorothy is nothing new in retelling the story of Oz. Remember Dorothy herself does not appear at all in the stage show Wicked. However, I believe following others' example is not in their best interests. I do feel that it is more of their storytelling style to make the events surrounding Dorothy's visit to Oz relevant to the overall story. They don't just write things off.
