Janeway had the authority to promote Starfleet officers under her command, but not the authority to recruit new officers. Hence the “provisional” part. But the situation required it so all the Maquis she integrated wore those alternate pips until Starfleet could ratify and approve them (most, if not all of which, they did.)
Personally, I like the bit about Rogue One. Because Leia Organa is definitely the kind of person who would tell a bald-faced lie to a six-foot-tall cyborg known for killing innocent people on a whim if just to buy her insane, last-ditch, Hail Mary plan of giving top secret data to an R2 unit and sending it after a person she hasn’t seen in over ten years who might be hiding who-knows-where on a desert planet a few more seconds.
There are a lot of problems with Disney Canon, Rogue One is not one of them.
