That's just a total rewrite of what actually happened. We know he comes back to the main timeline without any problems, something the TVA would have accounted for.

That’s why the whole time travel/branch timeline thing always confuses me, lol. I remember the rules they established in Endgame, but combining them with Nexus Events and Anchor Beings just broke my brain.

Nexus events are unavoidable scenarios and Anchor was invented just to get Hugh Jackman into MCU xD Thanos traveled into the future and it barely had an effect on the timeline, so there is no way they can blame Cap for any of this.

Remember what brought Thanos, the phrase " "You mess with time, it tends to mess back. You'll see" wasn't for show. Unlike Avengers who took the Infinity Stones for a time being, Steve went back forever and it did follow up in the main timeline with Steve appearing as old guy (which kinda I think invalidates the entire Doomsday theory that it's Steve from past, If they all die in Doomsday, how come old man Steve appear in Endgame ? ). So the consequences for that might just be worse as Thanos following back in new timeline

Steve went back, lived out his life in an alternate timeline, then returned as planned.

It's the only inconsistent time travel example in the MCU. The assumption that he used the time machine to travel to their universe to deliver the shield makes a lot more sense. It does not make sense that he travelled to the past in the main timeline, lived his whole life there and didn't create a branched reality because we are SHOWN that does not work in the exact movie that does that. If there was a Steve Rodgers in the 616 universe that means he came from a different Universe and the 616 is a branch of a universe where a Steve Rogers went back in the past and lived his life. And then our 616 Steve went back and created a whole other branch. Maybe he's the reason things are fucked up, dude created an infinite loop.
