I may have found another solution.

The Wish Realm was created by a wish. Appearently, the writers didn't retcon that. But the real question here is when was it created?

We know there are lots of differences between EF and WR even before the curse. Their history are NOT the same. But the Wish Hook also said that their history were the same up until the Dark Curse was cast. But we know it may not be true, due to the fact that some characters's life was extremely different. (See Cruella, Ariel, Smee, BB, Robin, Sheriff, Stealthy etc)

So, what I'm suggesting is to see the failed Dark Curse for the start point of the Wish Realm. All events prior to that are just memories (Same or different, but memories). It cannot start from the beginning of the world anyway.......

It also fits to 707 flashbacks, which is the earliest scene we saw of the Wish Ream, and is in the time frame where the Dark Curse is failed. It all fits to everything.
