Sonic Boom is its own thing, and by adding more game characters, they are just turning Boom into another Sonic game that you watch and cannot play. The reason why I like the idea of adding more Sonic characters is because I like the idea of the world of Sonic boom to expand. So far there are many mysteries of Sonic Boom we've yet to discover:
 * Will we get to see lands outside of Bygone Island?
 * Will we get to see Angel Island?
 * Will w eget more backstory of Team Sonic? Especially Sticks, why is was she semi-feral?
 * Is Dr. Eggman the only human on the planet?
 * Dozens of questions about the Ancients.
 * Will we have a Chaos Crystal story ark?

Plus, when I say I would like to see more Sonic characters in Sonic Boom, it's more of a half-truth. I don't see Team Sonic from Boom the same as the actual Team Sonic. Not only do they appear different but also have different stories and motives which make them different. I would be facinated to see how Sonic Boom will portray existing characters.

For example if Sonic Boom will ever have it's own Team Dark, I can imagine Rouge the Bat appearing as she did in Sonic Heroes, or very least wear a more modest costume for a kids show. Perhaps she confirms those government conspiracies that Sticks is paranoid over being an agent for those government, or Sonic Boom lore can disregard Sega GUN backstory and just have her as a hired thief who befriends Shadow. I can also imagine that Burnbot turning to resent Dr. Eggman and befriends Shadow and Rouge, this becoming the Boomiverse equivilent of Omega. Sure Burnbot and Omega are fairly different but have lots of things in common which could still make them parallel counterparts to one-another so no point in having two robots that are almost alike.

And if it turns out Team Dark will be a thing in Sonic Boom, chances are it'll have just the one episode in an entire season.

So yeah, you're right that Sonic boom is it's own thing and it should be, but would still be brilliant to see more of it and how it reflects Sonic's world.
