The whole point of these fillers are to delay for the upcoming adaptation of the novels, which is due in the winter. They want to save money for the high-end animation, which will cost more money because they're including action scenes.

These fillers are just slice-of-life episodes just to save their budget and keep the show going on until the novel adaptations.
