'''It doesn't matter who launched it or how. "The Leftovers" never answered the questions surrounding the Great Departure/Rapture and it's gone down as a classic TV series. If it did matter, then the episode would've focused on the search to reverse everything and that wasn't what Mutant Apocalypse was about. '''

Yes, it does matter,  if this is intended to be a canon series finale. If the writers are that determined to end a series on an apocalypse, you need to explain how they got there, and that reason needs to make sense within the context of the story. The writers utterly failed with respect to that. The arc is unable to fit into the canon timeline.

However, if it's an alternate reality, on the other hand, then it doesn't matter so much.
