Maybe if I ask a different question in conjunction to your explanation. Is MKvsDCU like Marvel vs. DC where it was its own universe or can MKvsDCU be considered a part of Original Timeline lore?

If it's the latter then it makes sense that MKvsDCU was the 8th official game in the series. Otherwise, they went from MK1, II, 3 (plus Ultimate and Trilogy), 4 (plus Gold), DA being 5 (plus TE), Deception being 6 (plus Unchained), and Armageddon being 7 to just jumping into MK9 and now we have MKX (10). The adventure games were considered prequels and SM was considered non-canon. I'm just really confused by the fact that we have Mortal Kombat 8 being MKvsDCU and yet it's non-canon. Another question; why would Boon make MKvsDCU, call it MK8, and it just isn't a part of the universe? It just doesn't make sense. uS It doesn't have to be canon. The number labels on the games aren't having to do with the story. It's just the 8th game in all the games they've made. That make sense?
