It made much more sense (narratively and logistically) the authors spent the whole seventh season of Arrow stating that E-2 Laurel was NOT E-1 Laurel as doppelgängers share only few similarities (as evidenced for E-2 and E-1 Thea Queen nor even their birthday) even Quentin ended up aknowledging that that Laurel wasn't his daughter, and vice versa, they developed a loving father-daughter relationship but the authores stated again and again they're NOT related, so if Earth-Prime inhabitants are doppelgängers of E-1/E-38/E-BL characters they shouldn't be related to the Paragons and if they treated them like their deceased loved ones after all of the Arrow 7 drama, well, it would b just hypocrisy... other than being inaccurate. Also, they shouldn't have those "old memories" J'onn gave them back since thir own persona with no memory of the Crisis or the multiverse before it. I guess is now safe to assume Earth-Prime inhabitants are just a reborn version of their former counterparts even if somewhat changed, even esthetically in some case (i.e. Brainy)
