Had you watched the interview, you'd have seen Martin himself makes note of it along with other similar divergent paths. The issue is not keeping time with the books that are written, but not diverging from the story yet to be told in the two unwritten books. Every divergence now creates possible problems later. What you assume to be a 'minor' character may not be one. All of the characters that now seem 'major' were 'minor' at one point in the story. And characters that seemed undeniably 'major' at one point are now 'minor' or dead. ;)
