Evidence of SNW being a possible alternate timeline from TOS

i still think that strange new worlds is from alternate timeline because most of the stuff thats happened in strange new worlds was kinda never mentioned on the original series

and at the same time most of the characters from strange new worlds kinda was never mentioned on the original series and or they kinda never showed up on the original series

Why would that be an issue? And what would bringing up characters in SNW really boil down to by TOS?

"Hey, remember La'an?"
"Yes."
"She's Khan's descendent."
"Okay... what can we do with this information?"
"I'm not sure, but the fans are going a little nuts wondering why we aren't bringing up that trivial detail."
"Logical."


"Hey, remember Ortegas?"
"Yes."
"She flew the ship."
"Of course."
"Anyway..."
 
The most they could do with those windows on the models was do that one shot of little tiny figured moving in the observation window for the opening titles of TNG. And that was as good as it got until the late 90s when CGI allowed to do elaborate pull outs on both DS9 and VOYAGER, and those were typically one and done shots (or the final shot ever, in DS9's case).

And even that was a pastel animation they matted into the windows, not a physical move in the model itself.
 
TOS windows weren't even lit in some model shots. Limitations of both 1960s budgets and model work.
