This is exactly why we should have waited for the seasons to end before splitting articles. Whether everyone is a doppelganger native to Earth-Prime or are just the same people restored by an altered timeline is really ambiguous and I'm leaning toward the people revived by the time alteration. If J'onn can restore people's memories of before the Crisis, even the events he didn't see, and Cisco could create a ring for non-telepaths like Laurel to wake pre-Crisis memories, they have to be the same people from before the Crisis. That ring shouldn't be able to work if they are literally doppelgangers that shouldn't have any repressed memories of Earth-1 or Earth-38.
