considering the show starts with madrigal being glassed my assumption was that the covenant hadn’t really breached the inner colonies too much, and when they did ONI covers it up (this and the fall of reach are covered extensively in season 2), i dunno, if i wanted to watch the chief shoot aliens i’d just watch a longplay of the games. i’m pretty sure they saw star trek discovery and were like nobody wants to see endless scenes of awkward cgi aliens mumbling in a fake language about Politics. I’m glad the arbiter showed up though
