No, since it coincides with the interpretation of the writer (Grant Morrison)
who literally wrote it, in the questionnaires to the writers in the last page next issue,
and also Marvel Comics (Handbooks)
If I'm wrong, then Morrison is wrong about his own work,
and the Handbook writers as well who corroborated said truth.

question.
if it is in fact an alternate timeline that has nothing to do with 616,
then why print the comics?
And who said it had nothing to do with 616?
Everything comes from 616,
every alternate/diverged/mirror reality comes from 616.
So, of course one has to change soemthing in 616,
in order to change something in an alternate universe.
How the hell you think all those 'What If' realities came to light?
Correct, by a decision made back in 616,
just like Scott's decision to quit,
gave rise to a global dominating Sublime in an alternate Future called Here Comes Tomorrow,
this alternate future was designated Reality 15104. (just another possible future of 616)
And just like Scott's decision to stay with the X-Men,
nullified the tragedy that was that alternate future. (here Comes Tomorrow - Reality 15104)
The only significance that Jean has in the alteration of reality 15104,
is manipulating Scott's to stay with the X-Men.

why tell the story? why would jean bother to manipulate it?
Jean manipulated Scott,
because the Phoenix of the White Crown is from Reality 15104,
there is NO WPotC in 616.
But there is a WPotC in the a possible future known as Here Comes Tomorrow,
this possible future is located in a reality designated 15104.
WPotC wanted Scott alive in her future,
so yea, she had to back into 616,
in order to give Scott life again,
and simultaneously assuring that Sublime would not rule her world in that future.

she's from 616,
and 616 scott is who she cares for above all.
if it's not 616 scott, then why bother?
All 'What If' stories originate from 616,
just like Here Comes Tomorrow.
So, if Here Comes Tomorrow is 616,
then every single 'What If' story is 616 as well.
And that's bull shit (pardon my french)

time has also been manipulated by various beings. jean isn't the first, nor will she be the last person to manipulate it. i really don't see why it's that much of an issue.
Jean never manipulated time in Here Comes Tomorrow.
She manipulated Scott's decision,
which in turn manipulated time.
The power of the divergence was always in Scott's decision.
