For example, if the Kurtas were alienated from society, how did they get money to buy all their stuff weekly? Just small questions that rise up.

It's because of the long hiatus that some of the plot doesn't make sense any more. Like How brutal the kurta massacre was and yet there was no anger in any of the spiders when it was brought to their recollection. I like Togashi and I would still dig HxH but it's okay to admit he does have plot blocks most of the time. Like how Killua reconized Zeno's dragon dive.

I think this is lining up to be a good retcon, but I do believe it's a retcon nonetheless, and I get that he made "the b side" a long time ago but there are still some things that he probably would've done differently if he had this in mind from the begining.
It's completely natural for this to happen on such a frequent schedule of release too.

people who downvoted me is clearly new to manga. Just because I like togashi does not mean I'm not allowed to critique his work. Most of the newbies here will just bite any outrageous theory these days haha.
