Mahabharata describes (at > least Subramaniam's version) Krsna's disappearance.

This kind of logic may not conclusive. Because Vyasadeva is a trikala darshi. He can see the past, present & future. So he can very well write about events which will happen in the future. For eg. he wrote about Chanakya & Buddha in SB and about Jesus & Mohammed in the Bhavishya Purana doesn't mean that he wrote after these personalities appeared.
