What I really wanted to get at was little things add up over time to create a much larger discrepency within the theory.

That seems to be your major misunderstanding.
​
Little things don't "add up over time" to become big discrepancies. The little things cause little corrections which prevent big discrepancies.
​
When you drive down the highway, you're constantly making little course corrections to stay on the road. But those course corrections don't add up to drive you further and further off course. They keep you on course.

This seems completely irrational to expect a crocodile or a turtle to have survived such extremes.
​
Around here it's -20 to -30 degrees Celsius all winter and the turtles seem to survive.
