Basially the title.
Reintroducing a strike a great for the game. Making it a part of your seasonal story works fine as well.
But for -blam!-'s sake don't make people join into the middle of it after much of the strike and its associated story elements have passed. That is absolutely terrible for story progression and spoilers.
Forcing people into a matchmade piece of content for story progression is questionable to begin with, but losing a good chunk of the story because you joined in the middle of the strike? That's just terrible.
If you must put matchmaking into your story missions then disable join-in-progress, at least for people's first time through the story content.

I did it solo by changing my System date to be able to load solo since I put content on Discord. And didn't want blueberries just running foward and giving me joining allies and not be able to find the taken ornament in it.
