Corrected entry: After Picard enters the Nexus, he gains the ability to find Kirk and then travel back in time bringing Kirk with him. However, Soran entered the Nexus at the exact same time. Wouldn't he also gain similar abilities? Would he not then use them to stop Picard from changing events? Is there a copy of Soran still alive in the Nexus even after we see him killed in the altered timeline?

Correction: Soran doesn't have anyone who would want to come back with him. He said himself that people don't want to leave the Nexus, it was simply Kirk's sense of doing the right thing that convinced him to help Picard. Someone who was selfish enough to risk killing people to get to the Nexus would not then leave for the chance of helping someone else enter.
