But what if time isn't strictly a line? But more like a flexible skein. Things change in the past and that pulls things in the present. Not a separate timeline per se to just puts you in a slightly different position in the stream.
Maybe that accounts for all the little "misremembered past" stuff we talk about, like the spelling of the Bear Family or that genie movie with Sinbad we all remember the trailer for, but no one has ever seen it.
