P.S. The author also said the "''book is comic canon but in terms of continuity follows the rules of MCU plus Coulson - so more like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'" "comic canon" could mean the story is set on Earth-616. "follows the rules of MCU plus Coulson" means she still doesn't understand that Coulson is very much alive in the MCU because the "TV universe" and the MCU are one and the same. It seems to me that she just wrote the book without bothering to put it in any specific universe, and now that the fans are asking questions about the reality number she's giving some half answers without thinking if the story would fit in some universe or not. Just give it a temporary reality number and that's it.
