Agreement here.

Excellent point, however, we don't know just how far back in time the Marine went when he finally got it right. The final timeline in MI ends with the sun being wrapped in containment fields, but it *has* gone nova, corresponding with the end of M2. And the beginning timeline (Ne Cede Malis) and end timeline (By Committee --> Aye Mak Sicur) of MI also correspond, and if we assume that MI initially takes place immediately after M2. Also, it's possible that the Marine never actually leaves the same continuum and ends up being in 2 places at once. So Tycho is destroyed by Durandal in the final timeline.

The Marine has an organic brain, Durandal keeps talking about neurons in M1 and Tycho mocks our "soggy little skull".
