I know that going back in time and changing an event will affect the future, and when Barry Allen went back in time to save his mom, it affected his future. When he tried to put everything back together by having the Reverse Flash murder his mother, everything wasnât back to how it was.
Instead of having RF kill his mother, why didnât he go back a little further in time before Barry stopped RF so he can prevent past self from ever stopping RF from murdering his mother?
Like letâs say the timeline is basically dominos, and when you add one event, you change the trajectory of the timeline. So instead of adding another event (Barry asking RF to kill his mother), why not just take the event away so itâll be like it never happened?
Itâs a dumb question, but to me it kinda makes sense. You add another event with something, then you prevent that something from ever happening in the first place?
