I agree that the backstory does seem a little strange.. I prefer when they make much greater jumps in time, it's easier to accept large changes such as mutations or implants etc. it's the same in the Deus Ex games (2020-something - not very realistic.)
Is the old protagonist just the person who gives you the missions maybe?
Looking forward to it
Well I see it as different worlds and different technology. Anything is possible it doesn't have to leap 100's of years because it's not our world.
Simply put it's a game anything is possible. I'm looking forward to it but 1C usually has more crap releases than good ones.
