Exactly, the timey-wimey aspect adds nothing to it. Should have been left out completely.
Let’s say Bitil kidnapped me from my home and brought me to his far-away lair. But since I’m an amazing Toa of Everything, I break free. In an attempt to re-capture me, he uses his Mask to pull in a copy of himself from five years ago. But since I’m an amazing Toa of Everything, I swiftly kill the duplicate, causing the “real” Bitil to pop out of existence… But is that all?
Since Bitil has been technically dead for five years at this point, who kidnapped me? Couldn’t have been Bitil, his mysterious death was all over the news a while ago! But then how did he die? I sure couldn’t have done it, because I was never kidnapped and never fought him. It’s the Grandfather Paradox, and it’s impossible to explain. This is why this mask power was a huge mistake.
