That is kind of true. I never watched Nanoha for the plot, and in fact it's been pretty silly every time they tried to engage in some serious worldbuilding/complexity and I really wouldn't want them to introduce a bunch of characters and situations and forget about them anyways. At the same time, I guess it also doesn't mean they shouldn't try either. I mean, Saki was entertaining for a while, but it sorta lost its novelty value as time went along to me, for example.

The best attempt at a plot was A's, and there were many parts where it was made convenient to have cool fights and stuff, and it benefited somewhat from that.
