Wait, huh? I see what you mean about Lincoln being a bit Petery in this timeline, but I'm lost on the rest of that.
Well, he was one of the few characters created from scratch when we first met Redverse, and he seems to have been made to fill the empty slot of Olivia's Partner Who Is In Lurrrve With Her, what with no Peter around. Except in Red, it's unrequited, and besides Charlie is still alive, so he dilutes the partnership a bit. And as last season went on, Lincoln got more and more obsessed with her, a la S2 Peter, especially after Frank left her and he saw a possibility for himself. But! He and Peter are vying for the same role, and Peter, magical love interest that he is, is totally winning. Creating DRAMA! I dunno, does that make sense? It does in my head, but maybe less so outside it.
