I figure that's on the author. They know that a lot of people won't ever see an anthology or short story, so if they make a novella or short story critical to understanding the next book in a series that's a mistake on their part.
Most authors seem to do a good job of keeping critical information in the main-line books. Background or side quests or similar things are what they put in the short works.
