Marvel Cinematic Universe - Timeline (Part 5)

How do you justify an official designation of this reality if you think the MCU is a separate multiverse? If every MCU reality is canon, the idea of a separate multiverse becomes redundant.

Why have a redundant multiverse when you can accept the easy option of it being the same?

i agree i was just replying to your previous comment to have the 3 new designations in 1 comment
 
Why does something happening identically in one multiverse mean it's the same multiverse? Even in the same multiverse, 2 universes could hypothetically be the same - this doesn't mean they're the same universe, it just means they're identical. It'd be like saying the DC comics multiverse is the same as the Marvel comics multiverse - they both have different, fleshed out multiverses, yet they cross over with each other, since there are clone universes in the marvel multiverse. Since the MCU is an adaptation of a multiverse, it is set in its own, unique multiverse.

That's just my take on it though, I don't believe it's been confirmed nor denied (other than a book from years ago stating Earth-199999 is the same as the main universe of the MCU - though since the MCU is a multiverse, not just one universe, this would be irrelevant).

I'm not saying Earth-199999 isn't the MCU, I'm saying the Earth-199999 shown in the comics is that multiverse's version of the main MCU universe. It has the same TVA and everything, it just doesn't have any extra universes (not branches - universes, eg Earth-828 wouldn't be in it, but Earth-43186 would be).

Assuming every multiverse in media is the same multiverse is counterintuitive. We have the omniverse for a reason. Even without it, the comics state there are a panfinite amount of universes, whereas the MCU has an infinite amount of universes, each with an infinite amount of branches - in Loki it is stated that you will never be able to contain all the universes because they keep increasing at an infinite rate (I know this was disproven, but only as the reason upscaling the loom wouldn't work, not that it was factually incorrect) so clearly there it is uncountable infinity, as opposed to countable infinity, like with the comics, meaning the two multiverses are not the same and exist as separate IPs
