Maybe that makes the most sense to you, but if that was bulletproof logic then Islam, Buddhism and Sikhism wouldn't even exist, since they all directly reference older faiths which they "improve upon."
To put it more clearly - their followers wouldn't follow a "re-hash" religion if they believed in the rule of O.G.
But if there's a 'true way' in religion at all, then who's to say the God wouldn't wait until later on before revealing their faith? If humans have free will maybe the God waited to see how they would fare under their own judgement before delivering the message.
And on Christianity-Judaism connection
Christianity considers itself the true 'continuation' of the faith developed by the Hebrews, and a great deal of jews (maybe even the majority) around at the time agreed with this and got baptised.The Jews then faced persecution for rebelling against the roman empire, and were scattered and had their religious community sabotaged (i.e writings destroyed and centre of worship destroyed).
So to compensate for this some rabbis introduced a new book, the Talmud, which basically lead the jewish faith in a divergent direction from where it was. Modern jews are almost as distinct from Historical Jews (~ 30AD or earlier), as modern christians are.
Tbh, everything flows and changes. There is no "original" that survives without major changes for millenia. People change, language changes, the meaning of words and the understanding of the fundamentals governing day-to-day life changes all the time.
"Original" doesn't exist in real life.
Tell that to Werthers.

Exactly, it's like with countries as well as religions, which is why POTUS 47 claimed Iran had no history when it's actually one of the oldest countries on Earth from most people's POV
