6 months, 22 days and 4 hours of the Runaways being in the Dark Dimension would result them not leaving August 4 but rather leaving August 23 (in defense of the timeframe jump, it's exactly fits considering the previous episode happens upon February 1 2018.

I feel like Kevin Fiege will abuse continuity because there's this gut feeling the Inhumans cast will be rebooted (which it SHOULD NOT BE). That's really my concern because at the end of that first season, their habitat is a football stadium so why not continue on from the show rather than starting from scratch again? It would be a lot easier if Spider-Man just reverts back to Marvel Studios 100%, it doesn't make any difference as Disney holds a lot at the moment.

The problem with Marvel Television being a subsidiary of Marvel Studios and then being merged with Marvel Studios as a whole is narrative. You really have to explain where the characters have been if you want to use them in a new environment and the perfect example of this is Kingpin with Spider-Man and Daredevil comes in the background as backup material. Problem is, is Sony! Can you imagine how frustrating it would be for Kevin Fiege to listen to Sony wanting Tom Holland in Venom 2 where the first movie was something ripped out of a 2001 popular, by chance, release? He would be ripping his hair out!

It's not the hierarchy of Marvel Studios, it's how they go about their story-telling. It's getting to a point where they need to revolutionise their methods. An example is having a television show in the beat of the 2014 film Birdman where the show is set in the MCU but more focuses on a methodical perspective where you have characters dealing with/for something after the events have occurred. Like, a real grounded affair of true events but set in a fictional world. Something like that can really alter the audience of who watches the MCU and can make it far more flexible than what it is.

More characters, more timeline organisation... hopefully this sort of decision actually happens as Fiege overlooks 90% now as of Jan 2020.
