Biggest logical loophole! ! ! !

I watched it once when I was young and ignorant, and I thought it was good.
Maybe it is because there are too many readings, but now it seems that it is really not flattering. Director Wu just used a little suspense to hang the audience with the so-called violent aesthetics.
There are many loopholes in the film, the logic is not strict, and it cannot stand simple scrutiny.
Among them, there is no need to scrutinize. The biggest loophole that can be completely seen after a little recall is as follows:
According to the isotope amnestic method explained in the film, the memory erased by the male protagonist is the memory of three years after accepting the job, while the hero and heroine are accepting I met for the first time at the banquet before the plan, how could I not remember it later? Even if you don't remember falling in love, at least you know each other. There is no impression at all in the film.

    In order to avoid the plague, gather people together, which leads to the plague; in order to avoid the war, attack first, which leads to the war. Is the future destined or created?
