not really i see the events happening over time, with them each trying something different, and coming up with different strategies to overcome the threat that stygian was posing to equestria as the pony of shadows. with all of those options having failed, they then choose to go through with the last resort plan. that they made the seed, planted it and the tree sprouted before anything else was done, since this was part of the last resort plan.
