Some random kids also accidentally discovering surfing... that starts to seem unlikely. Must happen every day? Like, mankind would be unable to avoid surfing, just as they were unable to avoid fire.
 
For the Xenaverse's purposes, they've really chopped the hell out of the Trojan War storyline. This apple contest was in myths what ended up starting that war, but we've already seen that war finished recently. A war that had several of its notable combatants missing because in even earlier episodes they were already considered dead.
 
Hercules's end solution using the apple to bring together warring sides... well, seems more easily done than it should be. I mean, the rule was that two people holding the apple together would be soulmates, right? So how is is that it ONLY activated then? Not when Hercules grabbed the first guy, nor when all three were holding it did Hercules become part of this soul bromance.}}
