Q: But weren’t there universe splits happening just prior to Jason-1, Daniela and Charlie entering the box at the end? Then couldn’t one of the trios from another timeline end up in the same final world?
A: Yes. Presumably. Mr. Crouch does not address this possibility. Author’s creative liberties I guess. One way to look at this is that, even if other trios end up in the same world, they are likely to be benevolent towards each other and decide to lead non intersecting lives.
