I don't know why they don't do what Lucas did. Release a trilogy, then have the following trilogy that acts as a prequel to the original one. There's a lot that could be done to flesh out the current trilogy, such as Kylo's life prior to his turn to the darkside and the rise of the First Order.
Unfortunately, from what I've heard it appears that Rian's new set of movies will be set after Rise of Skywalker and could continue with Rey. I have to say this doesn't particularly excite me as Rey has as much personality as a bag of flour.
