Historical setting. The TVA doesn't exist in normal MCU time but instead their own plane of existence that runs parallel. This means that the MCU is both connected and not connected to the multiverse simultaneously at all points, meaning that Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man did exist in the multiverse during that time period even though, for the TVA, it doesn't exist before Loki.

Remember, the TVA got branches in no particular order, some from the future and some from the past. If they were in regular time, the branches would come chronologically. That's my take anyway.

Edit: Then again, Uatu...

Should Team Thor fit into this too? Given that it also appears to be a branched timeline yet it existed before both Loki and What If and was treated as nothing more than a joke...
