Regarding the 'reapers as a type of angels', I know what was said on twitter, but, while I have only really watched season 9 once so far, I really don't remember them saying that (not counting what may or not be said in the unaired Tessa episode). I keep reading about 'breaking canon' but in which episode did they actually say on screen that reapers are angels? Thank you.
It's ambiguous. Â They are simply Jossing the canon. Â It's a ridiculously late addition to the mythology, but I can only guess they are doing it so that reapers can't provide an "easy fix" to the Veil situation, seeing as how they (apparently) are trapped on Earth now as well.
