More and more it seems the writers regret having the echo be a thing and are trying to figure out what to do with it.
The echo literally does not work like that. At least the WoL's echo. The WoL sees into the past, why on earth would they retcon that into anything other than that? They utilize the WoL's echo many times, to show us past scenes that happened.
