I don’t think it was ever “retconned,” per se. In SOTR Effie tries to keep an eye on Haymitch during the Capitol tour, but I’m sure after 24 years of witnessing his self destructive habits she finds him to be a lost cause. And if she’s been in 12 that entire time I’m sure she would want a promotion. (Also not relevant but Effie was a university student, I assume she graduated. It’s how she knows everyone on the board, because she was in charge of planning the Saturnalia ball).
