The fact that the BL universe hasn't just *become* part of the Supergirl universe but *always was* part of the same universe with a whole history everyone but our main characters remembers is a pretty big problem! One I'm sure they'll address just as thoughtfully as the comicshttps://twitter.com/Nymphomachy/status/1232796712466448385 …
The whole question of how much the population of the three original universes overlapped - the entire city of Freeland explicitly did not exist in the Arrowverse or Supergirl universe - raises all these questions about the new merged universe
-
-
The easiest answer I guess is that New Earth's population is just a lot higher, by a substantial degree (Central City, Star City, Gotham, Metropolis and Freeland are all now in the same USA and have the same populations)
-
And the New Earth can support this many more people without anything substantially changing because its tech level is similarly higher, thanks to combining the existence of STAR Labs and the DEO and also retconning history so Lex Luthor walks free

New cities cropping up overnight would rewrite a lot of random people's histories, and the global economy. One of the points of the Flashpoint comic series was that anyone having memories inconsistent with the new timeline indicated that something was multiversally /wrong/.

Yeah the CW has already done Flashpoint The key distinction between Flashpoint and the Crisis is they didn't alter an existing universe using time travel, the existing universes were all destroyed by antimatter and then they built a new one from scratch
