I also think that Thawne's Speed Force connection is dependent on other speedsters generating it, which is why he was faster when 2020s Flash was faster, and then had to make sure the new Barry grows up to be the Flash. Though, logically, it should have made time travel to any speedster-less point in timeline impossible... So I dunno. Hmm, but if post-Flashpoint Barry is the one to warn 2014 Barry, implying 2020s Barry is erased from time, shouldn't 2020s Reverse Flash be erased from time too? And wouldn't that mean Reverse Flash wouldn't even be there to kill her?

Cool theory. I believe Reverse Flash is getting his powers artificially, which is why he suddenly lost his connection to the speed force, yet Barry didn't. Either that or he somehow overused it.
