Well the "lets shake things up somehow" plan is much easier to pull off if you have a separate cannon you can screw with with out real consequences to your characters. before companies constantly used Alternate Universes Watchmen was at first going to use the Justice League but DC didn't want any characters dying or going though big changes, then they where going to use a bunch of characters from a comic company they just acquired, but again didn't want them changed or killed. So Watchmen got it's own universe and characters that anything could happen to and nothing "mainstream" would be effected.
I think that's all that needs to be said on that tangent point now, so lets go back to the topic
