But then we're losing sight of a braided deterministic time stream the pushes itself towards a defined conclusion. If this is the mythos we are working with (which is seems to be, although possibly not guided by natural forces) they are almost certainly closer than run of the mill siblings, they might be identical on 25 out of 26 chromosomes, and just that one little arm on the 13th chromosome is a little longer than it is supposed to be.

Isn't that assuming that everyone before them was exactly identical, though? Couldn't it be argued that maybe the Laufey from Sylvie's reality was slightly different from Loki's Laufey, and on and on? The idea being that maybe everything leading up to the birth of *a* Loki was just similar enough to get to that point, but the cumulative effect of all the changes before it tips the scales the tiniest bit and instead of Loki you end up with Sylvie?
