I suppose that's possible, but we aren't shown, except by that one goat's line in EP8, that Kanon was being discounted in any way. And while 'Shkanon' shenanigans are never strictly necessary for any of the EP1-4 murders, I think his presence and acknowledgement by every other character has to be accounted for.
Especially if we start getting into issues in the sphere of Erika and her meta-trolling.
