Let me establish two names for simplicity:

"Timeline G" is the original timeline G'raha came from, where the Black Rose killed most of the population on the Source.

"Timeline S" is the timeline that we experience from ARR to Endwalker and onwards.

How does Timeline G even end up at the point it is, with a version of us having died to Black Rose, when the Final Days shouldnt have ended in a sundering since we were NOT summoned to the First by a G'raha from a different timeline, thus Elidibus and the Crystal Tower couldnt intertwine to send the Warrior of Light to Elpis to inform Hydaelyn about the coming crisis, so that her faction could prepare? "Coincidental Similarities" is an answer of course, although underwhelming.
