Preface
This thread hopes to give Corvo Attano and Emily Kaldwin Acausality Type 1 for their actions in the mission Crack in the Slab

Context: What Happened?

In Dishonored 2, in the seventh mission of the game, a Crack in the Slab, you gain the ability to time travel back to the night the main villain returned to earth. While doing this, you get to make a variety of alterations to the past that effect the future. Principal amongst these changes you can make is the rescue of Aramis Stilton. By knocking him out, you can prevent him from going insane by watching Delilah's resurrection. This action created a literal alternate timeline in which Billie's Arm was restored (because she never lost it chasing Aramis after he went insane, because Stilton never went insane. This is shown by the creation of a Hollow around Billie's arm, a Hollow being a crack in space time that serves as a window into alternate futures (This profile has all the scans for that). Corvo and Emily are unaffected by these alterations to the past they cause by not developing Hollows around themselves.

TLDR, the verse literally has a function where susceptibility to timeline changes physically manifest, and Corvo and Emily don't have this They alter the past and create living paradoxes with no consequence.
