The theory of pathfinder being able to teleport to different dimensions might be correct as we still don't know how at the fight or fright event in the trailer how exactly that portal to the different world was opened it wasn't opened by wraith and the only ones there were wraith, pathfinder and the people shooting at them at the distance although I find it unlikely as pathfinder could have done this by accident before and it was never shown to us that he did and ultimately it just would have been very weird since it would look like pathfinder and wraith have somewhat of the same abilities

Awesome, concise analysis :) Although, it seems to me that the "alternate plane" is the Void you go into during Phase Runner trips, and so I think the Project Marathon loading screen is more to prove only small objects can be sent long distances across space (setting up the source code transfer), as they confirm the distance travelled is equal to the distance to Troy, so it seemingly happened within the same universe. Building the Phase Runner up to time / interdimensional travel in the future is something I'm sure we'll get to though!
