Agree with what iSm said. And for me, it was the time travel conceit that afforded me that "good will" from the get-go. It set up the characters as starting from a common point, and diverging due to the change in the timeline.
If I want to justify it with the Mirror Universe, I could argue that these versions are from a very close neighbor in the collection of parallel universe that branched of in a way that only slightly affected almost the same people but for some small changes. As opposed to the Mirror Universe versions which are clearly from a parallel universe with major differences that has resulted in drastically different personalities for our heroes.
