Timelines are irritants to me but I treat them sort of like soaps sometimes. You know one day  jonny is 10, next day he is 18 year old jock college high school senior.

I would bet if you asked Jeff as well, that sometimes they just have to take some license with it because they possibly weren't really planning on going deeper. You've had Cora, Boyd, Erica, Isaac, Allison and maybe the biggest Jackson, leave the show, unexpectedly. Having to work new characters in sometimes in the correct timeline might be difficult. I've long said and may be wrong that  Malia's storyline was really a rewrite of JD was planning with Jackson. Who knows when they started the hole thing they may not have expected to ever be renewed for 5 season.
