Yeah I had no idea until the other day that people disagreed on the ''Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. We'll see over Season 7, they've said Marvel sign off on what they can and can't do when it comes to time travel.'' People disagree on the divergence point (some people say it's Yo-Yo letting Coulson die during CPR, which didn't happen, others say Coulson didn't always put the Serum in Daisy's gauntlets and took it, but we're explicitly shown while still in the loop video footage of Daisy yelling at Coulson to take the Serum after he's put it in her gauntlets and Elena tells Yo-Yo that no matter what they did, Coulson died anyways, I personally think it's Daisy noticing the Serum in her gauntlets). Unfortunately the show keeps it vague, and the characters don't know what broke the loop either.

And they also disagree on the rules, mostly because of Endgame, since the arugments fall on the same two camps as Endgame (loop v. multiverse). I think the main difference though, is AoS5 transports the team to the future, then brings them back to the (relative) present. Endgame brings the team to the past, then back to the present.

While AoS7 is going to be jumping all over the place, apparently, but definitely focused in the past. So while AoS5 can have the flexibility of sloughing off the alternate future into a separate timeline, AoS7 will either have the team traveling to alternate pasts or they will be caught in that whole "this only happened because we were there to help make it happen" scenario.
