Nobody said it was a *parallel* universe (at least I won't).
It is instead an *intersecting* universe, with a different past
and a different future, but similar at this one point.
The transporter rift linked the two most similar universes together.

Think of two lines on a cartesian plane with different slopes
that intersect at a single point.
