I still don’t get why/how there is two Neils at end.
Also I don’t get why he ends the movie with Neil’s narration. And honestly it felt like he shot the scene of Neil talking to someone and he used his dialogue as voice over.
To me this is the most open ended Nolan film, and I hope he has sequel plans in his head already.

I rewatched it for the sixth time and now everything makes sense. I had missed a shot or at the time it didn’t click what it meant but now it makes sense. And I made this diagram today.

I also like to hypothetical, and how about if:
I was thinking about the number of causal loops (or “bootstrap” paradoxes) that exist throughout the film, and I realized that the plot doesn’t just feature a series causal loops, but rather a nested structure of causal loops – the central loop (the Tallinn highway chase) comprises plot points that occur in close proximity, while the outermost loop includes events very far apart in time (The Protagonist’s initial recruitment and his
Not sure if something like this already exists online somewhere, but I made a diagram of all the major plot events in the film that occur as part of causal loops nested inside each other. What’s cool is that the Tallinn highway chase (the central loop) occurs approximately at the halfway point in the film.

ok a bit of a meta question, who do you guys reckon would win in a confrontation, Nolan`s batman at his peak, (the dark knight) vs the protagonist after the events of Tenet, bruce has his whole arsenal of gadgets at his disposal and The protagonist can use turnstiles, im not considering a long confrontation but rather a good old fist fight, would bruce figure out what is up with an inverted protagonist and figure out how to fight him ? ir is inversion too op ?
