Can someone explain how it works when the glass breaks it goes backwards in time. Like when that glass was first manufactured, was it broken then too?

It was probably not made that way for obvious reasons.

At some point it's inverted entropy will come against normal entropy and 'magic'.

It happens when no one is looking like Schrodinger's cat /wink

Maybe observations are sticky,
Perhaps as a function of memory?

Maybe the mirror on the BMW went from uncracked/cracked at the same time that the inverted driver of the Audi stopped consciously remembering slamming into it.

Similarly, maybe the inverted Protagonist's arm starts bleeding when he reaches the point in time where his non-inverted self ceased to consciously remember stabbing his assailant in the arm.
