Different biography = automatically a different timeline/continuity. They also happen to have vastly different personalities to each other, except Vikander and Jolie Lara are rather similar, I think.
I understand that different continuity = different biography = different character. But I disagree about "vastly different personalities". Any of the Laras of the classic type can be turned into another classic Lara with very few changes, and same can be said of the two reboot Laras. It's easier if you take into consideration that backstory almost never comes into play in the classic games themselves, it can be easily ignored/forgotten. Our perception of Lara is largely how she behaves in the games, few if any have her backstory in mind while playing the games.
