I'm not really sure that's the case. Look at the Reverse-Flash for example, when he went back in time to try to kill Barry as a kid, that wasn't some different Eobard Thawne from a parallel timeline, it was him from the same timeline's future. When he ended up killing Nora instead and stranded himself in the past, that subsequently changed the events of the timeline, but it was still the same timeline. While the Earth-2 events are completely separate from anything that has happened or might happen on Earth-1. If someone decides to change the timeline on E-2, these changes won't affect E-1 or any other. So they are not really different timelines of the same universe, they are separate universes with their own timelines.

Cisco Ramon and Eobard Wells didin_t mention the "Back in the Future" Trilogy for nothing!

In these Movies Time Travel is explained that way. Then you travel Back in time and chance events, you create with THAT a different Timeline. You now Can'T travel back to the timeline from there you are because things have chanced. But the Original Timeline from there you traveled back in time isn't vanished, they STILL exixist (because YOU STILL Exists) as a PARALLEL UNIVERSE to the NEW Universe that you created.

Thats basically the whole thing with a "Multiverse" by the scientific point of view in generall.

The Different Multiverses can be only little different to very big different.

This is the thing in the Flashpoint Comic Storyline, Barry has in the past chanced ONE Thing and the whole Universe is completly different.

View the Movie "The Butterfly Effekt" the same shit happend there, the Protagonist changed one thing and this has effects to all of his friends too.

Look at the Season One Finale from the Flash, then Barry travels in the Past to save his Mother he LOOKED to different TIMELINES from HIS World (The Flash Museum, Killer Frost, Barry in the Jail instead of Henry)

Everytime then the Reverse Flash or Barry (or Rip Hunter and his Legends Team or everyone else) traveled back in time and changed a thing, a new Timeline and a new Parallel Universe is be created. In one of them Jay ends up to become the Flash instead of Barry Allen and Linda Park becomes Dr. Light. In one of them the Reverse Flash has killed Cisco Ramon and Central City was be destroyed by the Weather Wizard ect.
