Um, what's the universe on the mainline? And wouldn't it be much easier to say that they caused enough chaos to start snuffing out other universes (c.f. EPDMU)? Or that the UF-Universe substitued the mainline and as it expands is pushing other universes into instability?

That makes sense

This sort of parses. What this doesn't explain is how moving to the UF universe stopped the destruction of the Marvel Universe.

Haven't we played the "what universe is attached to UF" game before?
