eh sure why not

would much change, though, besides Fluttershy not being friends with Rainbow Dash?

That would change the entire series though.

Dash's friendship with Fluttershy is the reason she challenged the bullies to a race. Pinkie very likely would have been able to stand up for herself, or at least not have been such an easy target, by virtue of her temperament and her sometimes naive ability to believe that everyone just wants to get along. So if Dash doesn't challenge the bullies to a race, Dash doesn't pull off the Rainboom for the first time.

Now, she might later, but think how many of the mane 6's cutie marks were time-sensitive: Rarity would have just been staring at a giant rock. Pinkie would have spent the rest of her life on a rock farm. AJ would still be in Manehattan, etc, etc.

When Twilight's talking about "true friends have a special connection, sometimes before they even met!", she means the Rainboom. Without Fluttershy, well, there's your nail.
