I agree with you there. The past remains a constant when that past is confirmed.And the past is a constant. Not a variable to be changed from choices made in the present. Duh.
But here lies the problem. There is much in the past that is not confirmed. For example, Lana.
We all suspect that she is the sister of Jill, who died. But where is that confirmed. It is only confirmed by Jill that her older sister died. Was it Lana? I don't know. Jill never said the name of the deceased older sister. You don't need to bring up the argument that she has only one sister, because that is not confirmed either. We just don't know.
And thus an alleged past constant becomes a varibale.
And this is also true of Partick, because Maya herself turns the father from a constant into a variable.
