They should make a Star Trek time travel episode to explain this.
Most of the Star Trek time travel stuff is already pretty stupid, so that's not a reason to not do it.

There is a following of people who believe a certain character was killed off on a very specific episode. The thing is that the write of Star Trek claims that character was never killed off.
I think there may have been a confusing episode where it seems like he dies, but he didn't if you pay close enough attention.
Because I do remember being confused at one point and thinking he was dead, but I think my confusion got cleared up somehow.
Star Trek tends to do things like that. e.g. the episode opens and bad stuff happens, but then you find out it was in the holodeck. Or a dream. Or alien brain manipulation.
In fact there was an episode where Chakotay led a rebellion against the captain and (probably) died (I don't remember now), but it turned out to be a "holonovel."
The only remotely reasonable explanation I've come up with, besides sliding between universes, is that my dad and I actually went to a test screening instead of the actual theatrical release, but I think the last time I asked my dad about it, he _didn't_ remember those additional scenes, and there's no reason that a test screening should have been happening in my hometown. Another less likely explanation is that the theater was shipped a test screening print rather than what was actually released. Neither is particularly satisfactory, since I definitely hadn't seen the orbital skydiving scene which was ostensibly in the test screening prints.
