umm... i'm going to address the elephant in the room here and i'm quite surprised no one has brought this up:

older pike told younger pike that sending the letter that saves the lives of these kids is a terrible mistake, and then promised to show him how, using the time stone from the klingon monks or whatever

but he never did! nothing in this vision explains why these kids need to die, why pike needs to die and how the whole incident is even connected to the future events shown in the vision - there is no connection - none of it is ever explained, not even a little bit

how does older pike know that these things are connected and the accident is some sort of turning point in history? how do the monks know it? why doesn't younger pike question this theory? how does anybody know that this specific event going in a specific way is the only way to prevent the death of spock and the escalation of the war?

the causality of it all is never shown nor is it explained, yet for some reason everyone acts like it's a given - wtf?
