Once again, what you are actually arguing is a philosophy that one brings to reading in general -- that of reading things in chronological order even when it isn't required, in order to enhance the stories with optional extras.


Once again, you are saying something which has no purpose other than to attract a flame war.
I feel sorry for you for not getting what is. This is not a shared universe. This is the same universe. These places and characters are all part of the same universe. Discworld is Discworld. It's not some other place in the Discworld universe.
