That whole we can get away with all the changes because of the temporal paradox thing doesn't work given the starship relativity (from ST:V) and the temporal police (ST:E)

both of which would have attempted to fix the timestream and put everything back on course.
Yes but those came about after the re-invention/new timestream presented in the first five minutes of the new Star Trek.

I think their use of the time paradox to by-pass all that stuff, and create a TOS redux of the creation of the real Trek crew only served to create a new Mythology that doesn't betray the old, and introduces a karass-like concept of the inevitability of their destiny together.

And it was fun.

For the Karass concept, read or Google Kurt Vonnegut and Cat's Cradle.

Star Trek rawked.

:D
