Lolno, it's an alternate universe, you're imposing what you know about the present onto the alternate universe, but those are just assumptions, any number of things could've happened for things to go differently (these are the variables I mean).
You can't take what you know about the present and just transplant it onto the alternate timeline, because that timeline has been different from the present since the start, and doing things in the present doesn't affect the alternate timeline at all.
Doesn't really though, you're still asking for proof that vados needs to be privy to some unknown factor, instead you need to be proving why what vados is stating is incorrect; that's how burder of proof works. However, since there is no precedent for what you are claiming, the proof you'd need to provide doesn't exist.
