Inconsistencies
There are some things relating to the timeline of Season 3/Season 4 that don't seem to quite add up for me or are difficult to reconcile with one another.
 * Thrawn: Alliances takes place shortly after the Battle of Atollon. It's unclear exactly how long but quotes like "the Phoenix rebels who had so recently escaped him" (emphasis mine) and "The rebels who escaped Atollon must be tracked dwon and eliminated before they can regroup and join with other cells" definitely suggest it's very close.
 * From Thrawn: Treason regarding Faro's promotion: "She should have been called back to Coruscant the minute the Chimaera returned from Batuu and the Grysk mission and put into pre-command orientation. On the other hand, that summons was only a few weeks late." This places Treason just a few weeks after Alliances. Haven't gone through Alliances recently, don't recall precisely how long that mission was but we're looking at a 1-2 month gap between "Zero Hour" and "Rebel Assault" here based on this information.
 * "Rebel Assault" occurs in 0 BBY and "Secret Cargo" in 2 BBY. With such a short gap between "Zero Hour" and "Rebel Assault," even if we assume "Rebel Assault" is really only something like 1yr and 1 month after "Secret Cargo," that would mean roughly an entire year passes between "Secret Cargo" and "Zero Hour." With only "Twin Suns" between those two episodes and context really not giving the impression such a long period of time passes, that is pretty hard to buy for me.
 * Complicating things further, is Eli's assertion that it has been "Over a year" since he last saw Thrawn. That was *before* Thrawn's Rebels debut in "Steps Into Shadow." The "over a year" statement suggests it's been less than 2 years between the end of Thrawn and the beginning of Treason. The idea that over half that time takes place in the space between "Secret Cargo" and "Zero Hour" is just. Pretty darn goofy and not very believable to me.
 * It's *possible* for all these things to be true, I guess, but personally don't feel such pacing makes much sense. Working on finding more info that helps pin down all the time from "A Princess on Lothal" onwards to "Rebel Assault" :) if it exists!
 * One other thing is Star Wars Rebels: Heroes of Mandalore is usually dated on here to approx 1 BBY, based on a statement on StarWars.com that says Bo-Katan's Rebels design attempted to progress her age about 18 years from her last appearance (The Lawless, 19 BBY). I haven't taken that into consideration because it's vague and there's enough to grapple with when factoring in the in-universe sources.
