Not only is time travel such a messy plot device (especially if it's not the primary premise of the movie), but they shot themselves in the foot for anything post endgame.
Most people think it's super hero fatigue, but I still blame the issue of "the world experienced five years, but not everyone was there for it". It's just so messy and really screwed with every story immediately after.
People vanishing for 5 years is fine as a concept, but time travel existing makes consequence not matter. Which is normal for comics like people say, but these aren't comics and they didn't have to dive in to the same pitfalls face first.
They also need to shut the fuck up about upcoming movies and let people just experience it
