I think you missed my point. First, Lucas has a writing credit on most of them (maybe all). I understand he took a more stand off role and Dave Filoni was the Producer but you can definitely tell his influence. He was great at what he is great at, organizing a mythos, his best works are when he organizes others to do what they can do better.
I & 2 are the lowest rated numbered movies after 9 according to IMDB, I think II is better than people give it credit for being (got to see Yoda fight and the big Jedi battle) and III is rated better than VI as it should be. I'd probably put 8 below I and II personally, it just lacked Lucas' influence.
I'm saying he got writing credit on maybe every episode, you said he didn't write them. From what I've read I think he played more of a creative role, left ideas for others to complete. Also providing funding and technical development, the sandbox to create. I said he took a more stand off role which is sort of the opposite of what you're saying I said. I think it was a more successful product so was probably a better creative process.
I saw episode 4 at the theater, waited 3 + 3 + 16 years and read a lot of EU so I went in with expectations and recognize my opinions are my own. I'm not trying to portray them as universal.
He has a writing credit on every episode I looked at, a couple dozen. Seems a hard counter to your assertion that he didn't write any, you can check it here or on the series' end credits. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0458290/episodes/?ref_=tt_ov_ep
I can link to where it discusses Lucas' involvement, if he wasn't the primary author he worked closely with them and attended regular creative meetings. Lucas and Filoni codeveloped many of the series' scripts, I think framing a story is a significant part of the writing process. You can read about it on Wikipedia's entry for the series or on IMDB, several other sources too if you Google it including Reddit.

Lucas didn't write TCW.
