PrinceIMC covered it it in full.
AoA has nothing to do with anyhting, sorry.
also alot of characters retained memories, jsut
had no access to them. Bishop had temporary backlashed
nightmares but that was about it. the only characters who really
remember AOA are its natives, X-Man, Sugar Man, Dark Beast,
Holocaust, and Blink from Exiles.
technically Bishop is right. the damage doesnt matter since its future
timelines (though it doesnt make it any less wrong either). all would be
lost from his perspective eitherway. his objective isnt to destroy timelines,
it's to kill Hope because he believes she will destroy all of those timelines
anyways, but if he kills her, new timelines will take the place of all of them due
to a paradox.
Bishops inspiration is he's a timetraveller. he was well aware of chronological
manipulation before the AoA incident. in fact Life And Times states he has known this
since he was a young man and first came to the past, and it has been his changing time
has been his objective since day one. He was moleing himself in deep and waiting for
the moment itself.
notably as well Bishop from AoA and Bishop from 616 are not actually the same character, so
Bishop really didnt retain any memories. Bishop AoA was approximatly 20 years older than 616,
and they met in the past before legion killed Xavier (would have). Bishop 616 picked up on some
of Bishop AoA's memories by being in proximity and contact to him, especially when he dispersed
himself. these memories where stirred up further by being in proximity to Dark Beast from that timeline
who was at the time disguised as Beast 616 and using Bishop to cover him from Mr.Sinister, for a reason
that would later be revealed. when Bishops both future and alternate timeline self from AoA caused the AoA to have never happened, Bishop 616 ended up never becoming him.
