But yet here it is, and it was integral to the entire Sequel Trilogy because thats where the FO was hiding. So its canon.

The existence of any large volume of space which can reasonably be called the "Unknown Regions" in the immediate vicinity of the galaxy far far away would directly contradict that assumption, which would render Jocasta Nu's statement unacceptably-inaccurate to the point of being evidence for gross incompetence.
Its proven false about 5 minutes after we hear it and we know that they Jedi don't know a ton about the Sith or their practices and them having that level of cartographical information is downright unreasonable. It was a badly written line of dialogue that shouldn't be there because it causes issues like this, where you can't have Secret Planets or Systems because "The Jedi Archives hve all of it."

Or it just makes the Jedi a bunch of ***** who don't share.
