Being a secondary is very very wrong, as for one, you can basically get shunned from fanbases if they find out you never tried the franchise yet (as in play their game, watch their series, etc.)

So it's advised for one to stay away a person's fanbase (unless if your a friend of a fan, and they know you for a long time).

Another thing is a secondary you can get details very wrong even though you read about it on wikipedias. You also essentially ruined the franchise for yourself once you read about it, eventually ruining the "thrill" you would normally get if you were to play it without knwing about it.
