No. Something that significant would not be a continuity error. Everything has a reason in this show.

Are these flash-sideways representative of a single alternate reality or multiple alternates?

I think that there may be 10 or more iterations of the sideways/alternate reality.

Somehow, Desmond did get married and the reality we are seeing in LA X is one in which he is married....the reality we saw last night was an earlier iteration.

The X in LA X has got to mean something....why not 10th iteration?

Or it could mean "LA 10" in the "Oceanic 6" sense. Let's see:

Jack
Kate
Jin
Sun
Sawyer
Locke
Miles
Ben
Daniel
Desmond
Charlotte
Sayid
Claire
Charlie
Hurley
....


Okay, maybe not. Unless only a subset of them count (e.g., not Daniel, Charlotte, and Miles since they only show up as bit-players in other people's side stories). But that still leaves a bunch more than X. Hmmm
