Given how Thor and Loki are most definitely not brothers in the myths, why are you nitpicking *this*?

Because the myths, being stories people told about the Asgardians of the movies, could easily be wrong on such details. It's a really, really easy case of unreliable narrator.

That Nordic peoples prior to the date given by a caption in the movie worshipped Thor or a Thor-like figure, however, is a matter of history, making the MU more of an AU (and prior to the development of the super-soldier serum) than it really needs to be if the date is correct.

Or maybe Bifrost can provide time travel in addition to travel between 'realms'. It's described as an Einstein-Rosen bridge, after all, and those are warps in space-time, not space alone.
