You hit the nail on the head, Wayne. Disney and Universal knew that the level of success with TFA and JW, respectively, was a lightning-in-a-bottle situation an never expected the sequels to be quite that large. The only people who made an issue of that are fanboys on the internet who have nothing better to do, and particularly tone-deaf analysts who smell clickbait every time a movie fails to break an all-time record.
TLJ became the highest-grossing film since TFA (until Black Panther came along) and was an unqualified success. Fallen Kingdom is similarly performing really well within the realistic expectations set for it and is making Universal a lot of money. So I'm sure they're fine with that.
