1999 quest lore question, help!

Warframe side of tumblr, I need your help!... The fuck is happening in the quest?

And no, this is not about "what" but rather "how". Because how the story is structured it feels like the player is with the Hex's pov. We are aware of as much as they are, not what the Drifter knows!

So this is my understanding of the quest:

-We discovered that Entrati is in 1999 so we time travel there.

-1999 is under a time loop, we see Arthur die twice in story after all (during Whispers in the walls and this quest).

-When we arrive, we are trapped, as is Albertch, in the time loop. The video recording of Entrati states so.

-To escape, the energy from the nuclear explosion is needed.

-The Drifter refuses to leave the Hex and escape with Entrati. We time loop once again to try to save the Hex, and with the bonds that we form, we do.

Simple, right? Except, there are a bunch of things that the Drifter says that I don't have any explenation, except of one. When the quest starts, the Drifter has already looped? They know about the reactor exploding, they know WHERE Entrati is being kept hostage (and then we get jumpscared), and such (I remember from the top of my head those two). So, what gives? Am I right or am I missing something?

There are some parts of the quest that are intentionally vague but I am not sure if I am getting them right.

Also, was Wally's objective to corrupt the time line from 1999 as an anchor and wanted to cage Entrati in 1999 to finally catch him?

So what is armor on the protoframes and what isnt? I thought everything Amir had on him WAS his skin-turned-infested aside from the tactical webbing and stuff, but his chest piece? His hands? His shoes and leg pieces? I thought that was all cemented into him. I know he has zippers on his legs and arms, but are they there functionally or are they just part of his “skin”? Or is the black part the infestation and the rest just happens to be armor they put together that looks very similar to Volt’s infested skin? How did the Hex design specific armor pieces that look exactly like their paired Warframes in the future? I write xreaders and I GOTTA know. So many questions. I know they have functional genitalia, digestive systems, etc etc, so its not all infested, but how does it all come off? Rivets? Buckles? Snap-in pieces?

which ps if ur interested aHAA heres my other tumblr account. It has my AO3 link.
