Based on what was established in season 1, it was implied that branches could only be pruned before they reached a certain threshold of growth, represented by horizontal lines above and below the sacred timeline displays on the TVA monitors. But in season 2 Dox is able to bomb a ton of branches out of existence despite the threshold having been passed long ago. So was the threshold just imaginary, or did it serve some other purpose, besides designating a point of no return.

** Which is absurd since the events in the film took place because Loki escaped. Had he not, Tony and Steve wouldn't have needed to make a second jump to retrieve the Tesseract earlier.

** Adding to the above point, it's entirely possible the multiversal war between the Kang variants hasn't happened yet from the perspective of the rest of the multiverse. Plus technically Earth-19999 was destroyed by an incursion at some point as ''ComicBook/SecretWars2015'' has the last incursion involved Earth-616 and Earth-1610 but was presumably rebuilt by the Fantastic Four, and before that was visited off-panel by the Young Avengers. Like the above point time isn't linear and the exact order all these events take place for the multiverse is impossible to get straight.

** Or each universe within the multiverse has its own distinct "Sacred Timeline", possibly with a TVA or equivalent agency/entity/force to maintain it, or possibly just unfolding in isolation, if there's no TimeTravel to mess with events in that particular universe. In which case, it could well be that Loki wound up in a pre-existent parallel universe's TVA - maybe even that of the new-Phase Conqueror-Kang we've been waiting for - rather than an altered version of his own.

(Only problem is, the comics have specified that there is one TVA that has jurisdiction over the entire multiverse, with each new timeline causing a new desk and a new employee to spontaneously pop into existence and start monitoring it.)
