I feel like once they show us how the paradox Beasts/Muskateers fit into the story it'll be a bigger clue on the exact nature of the paradoxes. Right now, we don't even know if they were introduced during Sada/Turo's original tests and just conveniently forgotten about during the main story, or if they're somehow appearing in some other way after the main story has concluded; either by the "time machine" reactivating to create them or if they're simply manifesting into existance in the Tera dens.
