I do understand where you are coming from, and if you didnt knew, tons of people where actually worried God Eater 3 wouldn't allow you to create a character and leave you with the canon protagonist. And yes there are tons of ways they could avoid a "canon" character with a character creation feature. There's tons of games like that.

Yuu is just the default plus, they needed a default name for them for when you can't import Burst data. Take resonant ops for example. Obviously they could just keep the protagonist is away on cradle business thing but since they needed to show them they went with the default/canon one. Your own character is as canon as any other games with character creators. There's a reason why when importing burst data to ge2 it'll display your Burst character's name there instead of yuu's name(only possible in the Japanese versions).
