I think the story was fairly well written, and Johns obviously has a lot of attachment to these characters, but because of his fixation with specifics it does lead readers into questioning a lot of peculiar things that kind of stick out. Maybe that is what Johns' intention is if he just likes creating situations like this, but it does create a lot of confusion with fans trying to organize everything even if a lot of it doesn't need organizing.
