simplifying parachronics in Infinite Worlds

I don´t see any problems. You could add that projectors don´t work everywhere at every given moment, to have an answer to the question : "Why can´t we project directly into the Wolfsschanze to catch Reich-3 Hitler with his pants down?"

In the end, your background removes a few potential interesting complications. There won´t be any "Subquantum operation failure has the conveyor stuck in limbo" scenarios with your background.

Even with a more complicated background, the players don´t have to care about it, especially if the characters don´t have the relevant skills. You could have an NPC operator do all the complicated stuff and a NPC chief who makes the relevant decisions. You don´t have to tell them the parachronic details as the GM, but have a NPC bore the PCs with his technobubble.
