It has come to our attention that some timelines did not in fact find a way to "defeat" Lord English. This may be the reason as to why the needle thin gap to our timelines are as narrow as they are. Dave and Aradia are working on it, still, but I do think the Ego Death of Lord English has played a key part in this timeline. The loss of his godtier status as well as his past self removed a part of 'Time'. As for how other timelines did not see this as a solution; I do not know. Likely it was a very rare circumstance in which it required too many variables to be lined up correctly at the same time for it to happen in the first place. Moreso, Earth F_1 Dirk A. Strider, Prince of Heart, who "killed" him (i.e. caused his ego death) will not answer how he did such a feat. I was wondering why time seemed to not progress the same here...
