Was it right in retrospect to change Moore's personality after TMWTGG?

It would be interesting to hear from Fleming enthusiasts particularly. Was it a betrayal of Fleming's dictum to make Bond a more charming "Cary Grant-like character" as opposed to this: My personal opinion is that it was the right thing to do. The move away from Fleming is something I'd gladly accept. Moore COULD still be serious however but in much smaller, more appropriate doses.

For Connery, I am not so sure, since I dislike DAF and NSNA strongly. Even YOLT was so heavily flawed.

I wonder if when one gets older he would need to be softer to appear seductive. Maybe that's the reason?

I'm not a big fan of those films that you mention either.
