Everyone replying seems to be confusing “timeline” with “generation” or “era”, discussing how this point in time is better than other times in history. That is not what OP was asking.
Yeah, it’s basically look at all these improvements that happen in the last n years. This is obviously better than a timeline where those changes didn’t happen.
It also gives context for what way things could be worse. Compared to a completely dissociated suggestion like, “the entire universe didn’t spontaneously turn into farts therefore this isn’t the worst timeline.”

Yeah, that’s how I’m choosing to interpret them.
