Maybe if you want time traveling to not have any paradox traveling to the past - maybe that's what you gotta do.
But hey,what do i know about the technicality..
Yeah,exactly,maybe that's why they say you can't ever change your past.
Even with timetraveling you'd not change nothin
If I were writing a sf novel I'd change the scenario just slightly such that you more or less travel to your own past, but this act opens up a new parallel timeline while your old one remains intact. That way you don't have to postulate infinite universes from the get go...
To me, that is not time travel at all, but just creating a new universe that is like what your universe was in the past.
