Again with Flashpoint, it's not an equatable comparison, given that was regarding one universe, not multiple. Logistically speaking, the way I see it, they're intended to be continuations, but they're not the same characters. Much like how in the comics there were equivalent characters pre- and post-Crisis, they were technically different iterations.

The dialogue makes reference to merging, but given the Earths were very clearly destroyed, this is effectively impossible if taken literally. And quite frankly none of the characters are acting like they've had family and friends replaced with carbon copies cause that'd be an existential plot point that'd be far too heavy to try to cover.

It's not impossible that there was an Earth-Prime Kara replaced by Earth-38 Kara, for example, but given that the new multiverse was created by Oliver and the Paragons, it stands to reason that this would be completely random and pointless, hence that assumption.

The template to be placed on pre- and post-Crisis iterations is exactly how we'd intended to make reference to the comparison, as a lot of them are logistically carbon copies, as the idea was to recreate the multiverse, if not exactly the same as before.
