I'm also not confused as to why the story might be told over many years. Understanding the characters motivations and desires makes perfect sense. It is now up to the show to make sure that the timeline theory reveals all that in such a way that makes it relevant and interesting.

If it turns out their interactions and motivations have no meaning then the timeline thing won't be good tv.
Overall, I think what they're doing is much better than some rehashed King Kong pets go wild type story. Like I said before, I'll reserve final judgment until I see the actual execution though.
