I was simply responding to Xannot's comment. In the grand scheme of the MLP universe I agree that it might be a bit far-fetched to have any of the character's from Equestria's present time travel back to actually become the legendary Star Swirl themselves. However, I'm also a fan of science fiction and time travel stories in which such things can happen, so my imagination is prone to entertaining far-fetched ideas like Camelot's famous Merlin actually being a time traveler from the future. (I've always assumed that the Star Swirl character was inspired by Merlin.) So when it comes to fan "head canon" theories like this, while I may not agree that they would actually work in the show, I can still be flexible enough to discuss such possibilities.
