Not true.

By changing his parents he has also changed Biff's life, and his siblings,
actually every one in contact with them. He also ends up changing his
yet-to-be-born children's lives.

Maybe Chuck Berry never got the inspiration for Johny B. Goode.  He might have
learned it from Marty before it ever became a hit and Chuck waited for the
right time to release.
Maybe it was predestined that Chuck would learn it from Marty who had in turn
learned from Chuck. (confusing?)

Don't forget he ends up saving Doc in the end.  Although Marty
tries so hard to warn Doc of his distant death Doc refuses to take it.
He rips up a message Marty puts in his pocket.  But the message ends up old but
intact in the future. Why?  Also when Doc was first riddled with bullets from
the Libyans I don't remember any blood. Could it have been that Doc
was already forwarned and had the bullet proof vest on already.

To all you time travel experts, I have heard various premises about but
wouldn't it be kind of distructive if you met future/past version of yourself.
Also wouldn't Marty coming back to the future before he had/will go back
to the past do as much damage to the time stream as his interaction with
his parents?
