Would Dragon Ball Super borrow elements from GT?

^You're doing it wrong. The reason there are Saiyans in U6 and other similar things is because Universe 6 is basically the twin universe of Universe 7. You can't have anything like that in let's say Universe 11 or 4, because they are totally different. Twin universes are the ones which create number 13, like U6 with U7, or U8 with U5. GT might work as a different timeline, but not different universe.

They could do a crisis type of story line when characters from different timelines meet each other. So like Goku meet GT Goku for example.

You're write, I just started watching the latest episodes where they explained that. That makes sense, I wonder how deep they will go into the other universes. I still think they can use some elements of GT if they can take the time to make them good. But everything in Super right now is base off the manga so the manga would have to add them for it to show up in the anime. That is unless Super starts doing fillers. I don't count the first two as so much filler due to them being canon to start with.

Anyways, it would still be something to see some themes taken into account. As I said GT wasn't totally bad, it had good ideas it was just done poorly.
