Speaking of the two earths merging, here's what else should happen: since Arrow wasted potentional with Batman villains like Ra's, maybe on E-38 Ra's can be a Batman villain and exist on E-1 when and if the two earths merge. Well that would not work since they killed Ra's. Batman will exist, Ra's just won't be a thing. We can't bring back these Arrow villains to fight him again. Well, Ra's could exist on Earth-38, and become a part of Earth-1 when and if the two earths merge. Yeah, but that affects the continuity of the show in a big way. This is why a merge with the Gotham TV show wouldn't work either, because the character is dead. How can he be dead and then come back. Were the events of Arrow changed? What happened instead? It is just way too complicated so it is probably best if they leave the Arrow stuff alone. Just add the Supergirl stuff and there is no continuity hiccups. Also add Batman, but not his rogues on Arrow. A merge probably isn't possible, but they could have a Fake Crossover. Basically characters from one show appear on another, but it won't really effect the continuity of the other show.

As for Ra's al-Ghul. The best way at resolving that is he's a different Ra's to Arrow's Ra's. In Arrow lore, Ra's is a title not a person. So there can be more than one. They don't even belong to the same organisation with Arrow calling it League of Assassins while Gotham calls it League of Shadows.

Well tbf, the reason Arrow kept snagging Batman's rogues is because Green Arrow doesn't have quite as rich a rogues gallery as he does. It's not like The Flash doesn't steal rogues either, Mist was never a Flash villain. No, there can't be. Ra's is a title yes, but it is passed down. Not shared. If that was a shared title, Damien Darhk would be Ra's al gul by now.

It probably will just be the Gotham version which is basically a smaller orginization called the League of Shadows which controlls the Court of Owls.
