I don't know. This whole episode reeks of retconny plot hole, so I don't think it will add something to the timeline that is not messy. Not at all as Zelena is definitely older. Anyhow, I'm not completely sure that the casting call is true because of "reasons" and I think I saw a spelling error, but then again, I saw a spelling error on a true spoiler.

Can't say anything is a retcon or plot hole as we know nothing about it. There's nothing bad for them to have a childhood backstory. It'll probably just establish the different ways they view their lives.
