I don't think killing Hitler in 1942 would have accomplished enough. Someone else would have just stepped up to take the reigns. The machine was in motion.
The only reason his suicide accomplished the end was because the war had already been lost.
By the way, using your logic. Robertson should be taken out. I just don't ascribe to your logic.
