Yeah, I saw that on your el jay, and it would have rocked. But I never got the impression Abrams was trying to even remotely establish such a difference. Quite the opposite in fact.

I guess I really don't consider destroying Vulcan that big a deal. Nor collaspsing 8 years of Starfleet history into one week for the sake of presenting it in a single episode. Rather I thought J.J. was incredibly faithful to Star Trek and the rather drastic twist you suggest, while cool, would have been uncharacteristic to the character of the film - -as I perceived it at any rate.
