Boone's sister not being in the plane looks like another change to the continuity, unless I'm missing something there.
No. I think it is a change. But I was specifically speaking of people who would definitely be worse off on "Earth 2." Rose was dying of cancer before she crashed on the island. No island=pending death. Dead Rose=broken hearted Bernard. Therefore, I suggested that they had the most to lose in the revised continuity.
