A technical nit to pick: actually the world at the end of the text is OS, or nearly so. As Denys C2 transmits Denys CC's explanation, it "restores" itself as the Otherhood's interventions fail to take place, and Denys CC's presence, which distinguishes C2 from OS, disappears from history. (135)
Well yes, "or nearly so." Sure. Certainly a lot closer to OS than the CC situation, that's obvious. But John Crowley is building up his timelines with these bitty little details, and unless you yourself have cracked the encyclopedia, I don't know that you know that in R101 crashed in OS 1930 and in C2 1935 (or thereabouts). Is this one, tiny detail enough? Hard to say, maybe. But it is a difference that JC has signalled, however obscurely.
