first, you have to know what is time stop and time skip

time skip:1 2 3 7

time stop:1 2 3 *time stop* 3 4 5 6 7

and if it looks like this:1 2 *skip* 7 then yes You have simplified and easily explained what has taken many of us decades to fully understand. Well played. Imo the analogy is too simplified and does not take into account that whatever Star Platinum does during stopped time cannot really be erased.

During stopped time, all of Star Platnum's actions are not within the Flow of Time. Time is already stopped, so it is impossible for whatever Star Platinum to be doing to be considered part of the actions that has occured during the Flow of Time.

King Crimson's ability is to erase time for up to 10 seconds, and any any actions during that period of time are erased hence only the results remain. '''Actions done while time is stopped does not count as actions done during the flow of time. '''

Yes, you might argue that Star Platinum might not even stop time if King Crimson starts erasing time before that action has been taken meaning that " The act of Star Platinum stopping time is erased." Yep, I agree that the action itself will be erased,''' but remember : The results still remain. Fire will not realize that is has been put out during Erased Time, but the fact is Fire was still put out as a result.  Star platinum will stop time without realizing it and enter the World of stopped time suddenly and regain concious because it is outside of Time Erasure, the results of whatever Star Platinum does during Time stop will still remain while King Crimson will not be able to see what has been done during stopped time'''.

Okay imagine [    ] as a tape that represents the flow of time. (stop) represents the period where time is stopped and actions that has been done during stopped time.

Say Star Platinum stops time at the 4th second and breaks a tree and throws the 2 broken pieces 2 meters apart then resume time flow.

Regular Time : [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ]

Regular Time + Time Stop : [ 1 2 3 4 ](stop)[ 4 5 6 7 ]

Note that time is stopped during the 4th second, so the tape representing the flow of time is dicontinuous and is broken halfway during 4th second.

Now for Time Erasure assuming without Time Stop:

Regular Time : [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ]

Regular Time - Erased Time = [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ] - [ 3 4 5 6  ]

= [ 1 2 7 ]

Now we add everything together with Erased Time and Time Stop.

Regular Time +  Time Stop -  Erased time : [ 1 2 3 4 ] (stop)[ 4 5 6 7 ] - [ 3 4 5 6 ]

= [ 1 2 ] (stop) [ 7 ]

The tape representing Time Flow was already stopped and broken halfway, Time Erasure erases the tape of Time Flow, but it cannot erase the breaks in between since those are just *empty spaces * between the broken tape of time flow. Time Erasure erases the flow of time, but the breaks happening between the flow of time where Star Platinum can act will not be erased.

'''Halfway during the Time Erasure, a tree will suddenly teleport into 2 diff places as broken pieces but King Crimson will have no idea how it happened. The results after Time Stop resumes and the actions taken place during Time Stop cannot be erased.'''
