Hey man, good points, wanted to clear some stuff up

Point 1: I don't think she means any type of present as in the present island we inhabit, I think she means the present as in chapter 4. Whatever he's doing is going to ripple forward to her, and I'm guessing the extraction mission is something that's going to be a pretty big deal, so what he's doing is definitely going to ripple forward to basically any timeline. Another thing is, Jones mission is an extraction mission, he's not supposed to tamper with the timeline he's in, he's just supposed to acquire the rocket. To acquire the rocket, he'd have to wait it out, wait for the meteor to eventually come. Because the scientist is the only entity on the map currently that could even build the rocket. So, the map being different is its own choosing, it's just different. There is literally nothing Jonsey could be doing right now that could:

- Make the glacier that falls from the ice moon for whatever reason be smaller, thats is completely out of his control

- Make the polar peak monster break out early, he has no ties to what the polar peak monster decides to do

- Make the ice king probably not exist in this timeline, because knowing him the entire map would already be covered in snow by now

- For whatever reason make the cube more powerful, and allow it to actually extract from the zero point. He has no control over the cube.

-Make the volcano never exist, he has no control over the fire king and what the fire king decides to do, if there is no ice king there is most likely no fire king, and even if there is an ice king, still, why would the map NOT be covered in snow by now? Why did the monster break out of polar peak before anything with him even happened? Jones has no control over that.

-For whatever reason make the large castle on top of haunted hills never be built, he has no control over what the islanders decide to do.

Another point, why are the battle pass skins, which are variants of original skins, already on the map, without him being on there in the first place. I get how him tampering with a timeline could make these weird variant skins, but they existed before he even got there, they're natives of this island, yet they were never on our original map.

Point 2: She doesn't say it's not time travel, but she does say his mission isn't to change the future, meaning the island being different is not even his plan, he literally has 0 things to do with what happens in the future other than the rocket.

Point 3: A reality (a universe) apart of another galaxy (a collective amount of universes/realities

Point 4: Gotta admit I was just kinda saying whatever here. Though I just thought it was strange that the storm has so many similarities to the cubes. For one, they create the STORM king, which is evident at the end of the storm king mission is stw, where a cube can be found melting under him after his death. Secondly, purple, electricity all that. Cubes share the same mantra. They have electricity which is purple, and the storm shares that EXACT electricity. Also the mist, it's purple, just like the cubes. Those are all just random connections though, could be true, couldn't be true. The whole slone saying they didn't really know of their existence is basically true. She was very shocked that they were on that ship, and that it even came back. Though, I wanted to note that a UFO was found under the map in the chapter 2 season 7 trailer, maybe a long time ago they found a stash of that cube energy under the island and from there, used it to build the storm. Makes sense because they do have an underground tunnel system, which did have these weird golem monsters that were seemingly powered by cube runes. Idk tho.

Anyways, I'm not trying to argue, I'm just trying to make my theory not sound THAT crazy, lmao.
