I agree it makes total sense for him to want to retire, but how he chose to do it didn't make sense. I figured part of his arc had been making a life in the 21st century and letting go of the past (and Peggy), so it felt weird for him to leave everything behind.

In CA:TWS he talks to Nat about how it's hard to find someone with 'shared life experiences'. He's spent over a decade fighting aliens and robots, he knows wizards and gods, but he'll be fine going back to the 40s?

Then there's the fact the whole thing makes the time travel even more confusing. Even the writers and directors couldn't agree on whether Old!Cap came from a different universe (created by him going back in time to be with Peggy) or had been hiding in the main MCU timeline all along and just showed up on the right day.

I'm mostly over it except that we don't really know what most people in the MCU were told. Like, there's apparently a theory he lives on the moon, but beyond that? Did they tell people he died? Do the other heroes know what happened?

Yeah, the writers or directors (can't remember who) flat out contradicting the goddamn rules they set in the movie just annoyed me. If he wanted to go to a new timeline with Peggy, I was fine with that. But saying he was her husband all along? Even if that could happen, which the movie is clear that it can't, that creates another plothole, because how do you go back in time without creating another timeline? And it's a little fucked up if he returned to his original timeline knowing all the horrible shit that was happening and would happen up to the present day. If there's an explanation for why he did, okay, but they don't even give an explanation for it.

Firmly seconding all of this!
