If something like this actually turns out to be true, I will officially quit Star Trek. [/hyperbole]
Spoilers A Theory About Star Trek Discovery.

All writers rooms will be assimilated to reconcile with my own head cannon. The franchise only exists to service us.
Resistance (like CBSAA) is futile
Whatever we think, it's definitely not the Trek universe as according to TOS!

Nope. It's the Trek universe 10 years before TOS, done with 2017 production values.
Well in Kirk's time and later it was established that the UFOP and The Klingon Empire never went to war and only had had border skirmishes before their attack upon Organia!

One sentient beings war is another's border skirmish. One Kirk's Vulcan is another Kirk's Vulcanian.
Yes?
Good theory!
It would certainly explain a few things. Such as the Federation committing war crimes and sending people to gulags for life.
It would also be a good way to explain all the canon inconsistencies AND give the writers some leeway/freedom.

Oh it was reply to the OP.
Having them start moving from timeline to timeline would, at this point, at least make the show somewhat more interesting. And one can see where the set-up they've done could make that as plausible as anything else they're doing.
I don't think it's so, though.
How are they going to do a Mirror episode where there's a sufficient distinction between this storyline and the good ol' Terran Empire? Maybe the point of the story would be that the Mirror Universe is their own a few years down the line and Burnham and company now have the job of somehow veering off from that.

They spent too much time and money on the Klingons for this show to be about anything other than them and the Feds duking it out.
I'm afraid that's probably true. I doubt that if they tried to do something really imaginative that the suits at CBS would approve it.
As for what they're doing right now, nuBSG did it much better while spending a great deal less money.
The most obvious reason that Spock does not talk about Michael or his Father to his friends on the Enterprise, before Journey to Babel, is that Michael and Sarek had an affair and Spock took his mother's side.
Goddamn, at least that would be novel for Star Trek.
Well, that would certainly be better reason for Spock not to speak to his father for 18 years than him choosing Starfleet over the Vulcan Science Academy.
So Sarek is Vulcan's Woody Allen?
