   In otherwords exactly like all the other movies and TV episodes where   
   bad things happen and don't unhappen. Kirk doesn't order the enterpise   
   to sling shot around the sun every time a red shirt dies. Nor did they   
   try to undo all the destruction caused by V'ger or Khan or when the   
   Klingon moon blew-up or any number of cases when bad things happened   
   on a large scale. And you really want to know why? Because there's no   
   drama in it if they did.

   Right. Even "Doctor Who", which is all about time travel, has rules which   
   prevent the Doctor just going back in time a few days or weeks and undoing   
   the villain's actions.
