Nah. The events chronicled in BennettTrek are outside of Agent Daniels' range of perception and reach.

Huh?

[Quark]

Yeah, that threw me off a little too.

Harve Bennett was one of the writers and the producer of Star Trek IV.

[Quark]

Yeah, I know that, but I wasn't sure who you were referring to.

Know that, but it doesn't explain the circumstances around Daniels or any other Temporal Agent from going back to 1986 and retrieving the weapons or simply making them disappear from the timeline?

Because Daniels is not a character from the BennettTrekverse. History in the ST-verse which he does inhabit would record those prior events differently from what we saw in the movie, if/when at all (though one can only speculate).

I reckon the radiation rendered it completely useless and it became a novelty paperweight on some navy officers desk before disappearing into the aether.

Or... recognising their mistake the crew of the Bounty beam it out before they make their dash to the sun.
